In summary – Port Royale 4 will offer many hours of playtime across its different game modes.

What are some of the differences and improvements compared to previous Port Royale games?Meanwhile, ship-to-ship combat involves everything that you’d expect it to. There’s the slow turning arcs of the ships of the time to contend with, through to the relative strengths of those ships being determined by everything from captain’s brilliance to number of crew and cannons (and there are boarding and melee mechanics, too). Despite this, the tactical action is clean, logical, and the game teaches you everything you need to know in the span of a single five-minute tutorial. Port Royale 4 puts you in the role of a European governor in the 1600s. It's your job to grow your small colony into a powerful city. To do so, you need to drum up some capital to invest in building up your town and expanding your influence. The best way to accomplish this is to take whatever commodities you have in abundance and sell it to other cities at the highest price possible. You can become the master of commerce in campaign modes focused in locations around Spain, England, France, or the Netherlands, or in a free mode where the only goal is to become as filthy rich as possible. For the first time in the series, naval battles will be turn-based, with up to 8 ships on each side battling at one time. Use tactical captain manoeuvres to turn the tide in even the most hopeless of situations for a glorious victory. Who is developing Port Royale 4?
