DoP is a sandbox pirate RPG inspired by the spirit of games like the classic Sea Dogs. It’s a modern single-player game set in the 17th century Caribbean. The game focuses on open exploration, naval warfare, trade, piracy and building your own path at sea.

You start with a ship and a crew, but what you do with them is entirely up to you.

Sail the vast seas trade between rival ports, hunt enemy vessels as a privateer, raid shipping lanes as a pirate and carve your own reputation in a world shaped by ambition and power.

Meet characters throughout the Caribbean and choose your allegiances as you forge alliances and foster rivalries.

Sail without limits

Navigate between islands, contested waters, and rival powers in a Caribbean filled with competing empires.

There are no forced paths or linear objectives. The main story is there to be followed, but set it aside and build your reputation through trade, piracy, or privateering, you can.

Naval Combat & Boarding

Engage in dynamic tactical naval combat where varying factors like your positioning, firepower, and preparation can determine your fate as you master the winds, unleash broadsides, cripple enemy vessels, and take the fight to their decks.

Varying weather conditions  and changing environments are a big influence on the outcomes of sea encounters.

Enemy ships aren’t just generic obstacles , as they can be disabled, boarded, and claimed as prizes if you’re prepared to take the risk

Step Ashore

Ports are more than safe harbours and aren’t just places to resupply.
These dynamic places are where you can stumble upon various characters, trade goods, expand your knowledge and sometimes where you may walk into danger.

Forge relationships, discover quests, and decide how you want to be known throughout the Caribbean, as you explore different cultures, settlements, coastal villages, hidden caves, and fortified strongholds.

The Caribbean does not stand still, nor should you.

Shape your legacy

As you progress, you’ll upgrade your ship as you go through six classes of sea vessels, improve your skills, and gradually expand your influence across the seas.

Different ship classes handle and fight differently. Pick your ship from lighter, faster vessels to heavier warships built for sustained engagements and dominance.

Will you be feared, respected, or simply wealthy and successful? The Caribbean will give you the space to decide.

The sea doesn’t grant power, but rewards those bold enough to seize it.
