Featuring new campaigns and commander skills, East India Company: Privateer offers players even more intense action on the high seas. When playing Privateer, you can hire two distinct type of commanders for your fleets: merchant captains and privateers. You’ll be contracted by the crown or other powers for different missions, ranging from smuggling and escorting friendly fleets to locating, capturing or sinking important ships from enemy nations.
