What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early access provides an opportunity for community to engage with the game early on, provide feedback, and shape its development. It allows us to gather valuable insights from the community, identify any issues or bugs, and make necessary improvements based on feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Approximately 9-12 months

It is hard for us to predict an exact release date. We are a two man team and have many more features that we are working towards and we’re always trying to deliver good quality additions at a reasonable pace. In the end, we want to turn Barbarossa into the perfect open-world pirate game we envisioned.

While we keep working, you can join our Discord and follow our socials to stay up to date with the development”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“In the full version of Barbarossa, we have exciting plans to expand upon the features and content available in the Early Access version. While the Early Access version will provide players with a solid foundation to embark on their adventures, the full version will offer a more comprehensive and immersive experience.

Here are some key areas where the full version of Barbarossa is planned to differ from the Early Access version:

Expanded Gameplay: We intend to introduce new gameplay mechanics, activities, and quests to enhance the overall depth and variety of the pirate experience.

Enhanced World: The full version will introduce new islands and territories for players to explore. These areas will offer unique landscapes, environments, and inhabitants, providing a richer and more diverse open world for players to conquer and navigate.

More Ships, Upgrades, and Crew Options: Players can expect a wider selection of ships, upgrades, and crew members to choose from in the full version. This will allow for greater customization and strategic decision-making, enabling players to tailor their fleet and crew to their preferred playstyle.

Polished Visuals and Audio: We are dedicated to further improving the game's visual and audio elements to create a more immersive and captivating atmosphere. From stunning seascapes and detailed ship models to immersive sound effects and an engaging soundtrack, the full version will aim to deliver a more polished and visually impressive experience.

Balancing and Optimization: The Early Access phase will provides us with valuable player feedback that we will utilize to fine-tune and optimize various aspects of the game. We will address any reported bugs, improve game balance, and ensure a smoother and more enjoyable gameplay experience for the full release.

It's important to note that the exact features and changes in the full version may evolve based on community feedback and our own development roadmap. We are committed to actively listening to our community and taking their opinions into consideration as we work towards creating the best possible version of Barbarossa for its official release on Steam.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the Early Access version of Barbarossa can be summarized by its key mechanics:

  • Sink enemy ships and loot valuable cargo
  • Hire a crew, stock up on supplies, and face treacherous challenges
  • Complete quests
  • Conquer islands and dominate the open world
  • Upgrade your ship, add more ships to your fleet, and expand your territories
  • Master the art of trade and war, with warships and cargo ships at your disposal

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“While there are no concrete plans at the moment, it is probable that the price will go up once Early Access is over.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“At our core, we deeply value our community and recognize their invaluable role in shaping the development of the game. We are committed to fostering a strong and collaborative relationship with our players throughout the entire development process.

To involve the community, we have established various channels for open communication. We actively encourage players to provide feedback, share their ideas, and voice their opinions on forums, social media platforms, and our official website. We carefully listen to their suggestions, concerns, and aspirations, as their insights are vital in understanding what they truly desire from the game.

By involving our community, we can create a game that resonates with their desires, making it a truly enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

Ultimately, our goal is to develop a game that exceeds our community's expectations and provides them with an immersive and captivating pirate adventure. Their feedback is not only valued but also integral to the success of our game, and we are dedicated to incorporating their opinions as we continue to evolve and refine Barbarossa.”

About This Game

Ships to sink, cargo to loot, chests to find, quests to complete, islands to conquer and an open world to dominate.

Barbarossa is an open world game where you can live out your wildest pirate dreams and become the ultimate captain of your own ship. Start by hiring your own crew and stocking up on supplies. The journey ahead will be treacherous, but with the right crew and provisions, you can conquer any challenge that comes your way.

Once you set sail, you'll come across islands occupied by the kingdom or the pirates. But fear not, you can negotiate with them and even work for them if you must. But remember, there's always an opportunity to turn the tables and take their treasure for your own.



Upgrade your ship with new cannons, sails, and even add more ships to your fleet to conquer new territories. Sink ships belonging to the kingdom or the pirates and take control of their lands. And the best part? You get to keep all the spoils of your victories!



But becoming the ultimate pirate captain means more than just sinking ships and looting treasure. You must master both the art of trade and the art of war. Expand your fleet with new warships and cargo ships. The former will allow you to take on larger and more powerful enemies, while the latter will increase your trading capabilities and make you even richer. Your fleet will become an unstoppable force, feared by all who cross your path.

In Barbarossa, you'll have to outwit and outfight other fleets to emerge victorious. And when you do, you'll have the opportunity to control other islands and all the goods that come with it.
