Pirate game not seen since 2010 will finally release this year

Who among us hasn't heard the tale of Captain Blood, the seafaring scoundrel who—according to the press release I'm looking at—was "the most manly pirate captain ever to drink grog while romancing maidens across the Spanish main?" Well, presumably most of us, because the last time anyone saw his game was in 2010 before it disappeared and went into indefinite development hiatus.

But fear not, buccaneers and privateers: Standing proudly alongside Skull & Bones as the heralds of a growing trend of pirate games narrowly escaping development purgatory, Captain Blood will soon set sail, again, for the first time. Captain Blood's development has been picked up, dusted off, and retrofitted for current-day release by SNEG, a publisher focused on reviving abandoned, overlooked, or unmodernized games from earlier eras.
