About
New World to Discover: Start as a young, unaffiliated captain with an entire world open for exploration. Every campaign features a unique, procedurally generated map, ensuring no two games are alike.
Play Solo or Co-op: Brave the seas alone or sail with friends, the choice is yours.
Trade, Quest, or Wander: Engage in peaceful trading, take on quests for various factions, fish the seas, or dive for hidden treasures. Prefer a quieter life? You can simply sail and enjoy the open waters.
Dynamic World Impact: Towns and provinces need resources to grow. Supplying them leads to prosperity, while faction leaders will involve you in their agendas. Helping one may hinder another, and enough support can even let a faction leader take control of a province—without a single cannon being fired.

Fully Customizable Ships: Build the ship that suits your style, whether it’s a tough juggernaut that can take a beating, a quick schooner that rains fire from afar, or a support vessel keeping allies afloat. Swap out cannons for extra armor and turn your ship into a ramming juggernaut if that’s your thing.
Diverse Talent Trees: As you level up, unlock talent points to enhance Defense, Offense, or Support specializations. Each tree offers unique abilities and sub-paths, and you can mix talents across specializations to create powerful, personalized builds.
Crew & Captains: Expand your toolkit by recruiting crew, mates, and captains—each bringing their skills to your ship.

Upgrade & Expand: The gold you earn isn’t just for supplies, it’s your ticket to bigger and better ships, from nimble Schooners to powerful Frigates and versatile Brigantines. Follow storylines to unlock even more unique ships.
Forge Your Path: Whether you aim to be a feared pirate, a master trader, or a loyal faction ally, it's up to you!
Designed for Co-op: While the journey is yours, it’s even better with friends. Windward Horizon was built with co-op in mind, so bring your crew, set sail, and experience the chaotic endgame together!

Nice Pirate game with several thing to do, like trading all kind of stuff, solving quest, fight & build new settlements... For sure worth the price ! Enjoying it ! in single play & co-op - did not try multi yet, maybe laters, but thats no must for me).
v fun. am boat
dont even bother. disappointing expirience granted
I played it for a bit to scratch the itch of the first game. Its been a while but I think the first game was a bit faster paced maybe. But its fun, lots of random stuff to keep busy.
This is a pretty relaxing and fun game. It's slow paced so don't expect a lot of excitement and it reminds me a great deal of Event Horizon from the 1990s, which is a pretty good thing.
100 hours on the original which was my "go to" game to relax, and bought on release 10 years ago. Only discovered this recently and with a handful of hours down, ~2m in coin, full vault, and mythic ship fitouts, the largest population is 8, which means 3 ships in, I still can't get next at 10 then 12 etc. 80% of the ships aren't unlocked and don't look like ever doing so, given how slow the population grows (often spend hours on one province doing all quests, trading etc...to nought. They just don't grow. As a game, fun for some brainless time-out to relax spanking Pirates. But as one to progress, develop, upgrade, see provinces grow etc, there's no fun...takes far too long and that means boredom sets in. Great game but now getting boring fast after only 25 hours.
I dont like the UI, especially selling and cargo, just dont like it. game is ok
its a better game than classic windward for me opinion. Now with story and open world, though the story is kinda... how to say, not bad but not good either. And for the open world is actually clicking the map instead well... you literally sail to one place to another, but its still better than the classic where its all is a block. Oh, and this game is also modable. Is a huge point for me as a person who loved modding and play "editor".
Je ne recommande pas ce jeu surtout en coop. Ca bug, c'est mal foutu et c'est plus multi que du coop.
Very addictive and easily worth the price! Very hard to stop playing once you start.
