Battlin’ Buccaneers, Get Ready to Set Sail in Multiplayer Brawler Plunder Panic, Coming Soon!
Avast ye desk-dwelling deck swabs! ‘Tis almost time to leave the safety of the shore and embark on a battle for treasure and glory. Plunder Panic, the 6v6 pirate-themed multiplayer arcade title from Will Winn Games, is set to launch on September 17, 2021, for Windows PC via Steam Early Access!
Plunder Panic is an action-packed and chaotic multiplayer brawler for up to 12 players. The game sees two teams of up to six battle-hungry buccaneers engage in on-screen battles, utilizing classic pirate weapons like pistols and blades along with nifty items like firestorm summoning totems, flight-granting seagull wings, and of course, the mighty Kraken. Whether played online or locally, pitting two crews of sea-mad sailors against each other is a guaranteed good time.
With a beautiful and vibrant retro-styling, Plunder Panic drops players into quick, round-based matches with a ton of different weapons, power-ups, modes, and gameplay modify-arrs to keep every player on the tips of their toes — or pegs. But enough yappin’. See for yourself!

Key Features of Plunder Panic (not all features will be available on launch day and will release during the game’s Early Access period):
- Victory at all Costs — Multiple win conditions offer pirate crews different gameplay strategies. Teams can coordinate to either collect enough gold, sink an enemy ship with cannons or a rowboat of TNT, or defeat the enemy captain.

These include Free Play, Tournament, Captain vs Captain, and many more, along with ranked and unranked matches and private lobbies for more those extra-personal grudge matches.
- Modify-arrs — A variety of additional modifyers allow for even more customization, like random captains, friendly fire, and even a pair of wings for each player.
- Bombs, Bullets, and Giant Squid— Utilize weapons such as the blunderbuss, molotov cocktails, and dynamite to hack and blast your foes to pieces — and even call on your really big friend with all the tentacles…
