Ultimate Pirates
KARLSRUHE, GERMANY (DECEMBER 2, 2019) — Gameforge — one of the leading Western publishers of popular multiplayer online games, including AION, NosTale, Ikariam, OGame, Kingdom Under Fire 2, and TERA — is thrilled to announce the launch of Moonmana’s swashbuckling free-to-play multiplayer online strategy game, Ultimate Pirates, which is available now to play in web browsers and soon on Windows PC with a dedicated client!

Featuring a gorgeous art style and a unique pirate-themed world with unlimited PvP and PvE battles, Ultimate Pirates sets sail on a quest for riches and renown! Those who successfully tread its waters and navigate its world may very well become… the next ultimate pirate.

“Gameforge is excited to welcome Ultimate Pirates to its growing portfolio of high-quality games,” said Alexander Rösner, CEO of Gameforge. “Moonmana is an amazing partner with a very experienced and skilled team. With Ultimate Pirates, we look forward to seeing our players hoisting their Jolly Rogers and starting exciting sea-faring lives in the quest for gold and glory!”

“When I started the company, I set out to make a great MMO. I didn’t have a solid reference point, however, until I found OGame,” explains Artyom Shpytiak, co-founder of Moonmana. “I loved OGame and played it for many years, and now we are launching Ultimate Pirates with Gameforge and their CEO Alexander: OGame’s creator! It’s an immeasurable honor to have the support of Gameforge behind Ultimate Pirates. We can’t wait for players to discover the exciting world we’ve created.”
