It’s been 2 weeks since Corsairs Legacy announcement and, as promised, here is the first video about the development process.
Before we started working on the game’s story, we studied a lot of existing film adaptations, novels and games on that topic. Looking back at every book about Captain Blood by Rafael Sabatini and other creations about pirates, we studied historical materials about Henry Morgan's biography and decided to focus on Captain Blood: His Odyssey universe.
Storyline of Corsairs Legacy was created considering game mechanics that will be available by the time the game comes out. In the first game, the story will take place on land and based on third-person RPG mechanics. In the second game, the story will include sea battles, along with third-person RPG gameplay. The second game’s story arc will end in a way so that in the third game, a player could choose their own path.
For the main character, we chose bright and charismatic Jack Rackham, close to the Black Sails’ series character. Game presents an alternative life of Jack Rackham, more noble and heroic than historical truth, according to which he showed cowardice when his ship was attacked, while his cohabitants Anne Bonny and Mary Read were furiously fighting for their freedom, and as a result he was hanged.
We kept the original history of the flag, which became a symbol of pirates in our days. The flag consists of a skull and two sables, where the skull represents Jack Rackham, and two sables – Anne Bonny and Mary Read. We were using this image when creating Corsairs Legacy logo.
