Goro Majima wakes shipwrecked near Hawaii with no memory of who he is. After a boy named Noah saves him, Majima becomes a pirate captain and sets out with his new companions to search for clues to his past and a legendary treasure.
Fight gangs and pirates in close-quarters brawls, switching between Mad Dog and Sea Dog styles. Explore Honolulu and a chain of islands, take on groups of enemies, and search for loot.
Sail between locations, maneuver in real-time cannon battles, and board enemy ships for crew fights. Recruit crew members, upgrade and customize your ship, and improve Majima’s abilities while taking on side activities and minigames.
Players who enjoy the game often highlight its lively, absurd pirate adventure, Majima’s role as captain, and fast, flashy combat with two fighting styles. Side activities and minigames are also frequently praised. Reactions to the story and naval gameplay are more divided, with some players enjoying the ship-and-crew systems while others find them repetitive or shallow.
A new legend begins as you step into the steel toe boots of Goro Majima, a man who has lost his memory and reinvents himself as a pirate on the open sea.

Before long, they’re caught up in a conflict between cutthroat criminals, modern-day pirates, and other scoundrels over a legendary treasure.
Assemble a one-of-a-kind crew while upgrading your ship as you explore the open sea and forge your legend in the cannon fire of foes, unexpected friendships, and immense riches made along the way.
When an enemy pirate ship catches you in their sights, an exhilarating real-time cannon battle breaks out. Quickly maneuver into position while avoiding fire, then deliver devastating damage to board the enemy ship and take down the captain in all-out crew vs. crew brawls. Conquer the seas, discover hidden islands and acquire loads of loot like a true yakuza pirate!
Dynamically switch between the “Mad Dog” and “Sea Dog” fighting styles to mix-up attacks and deliver explosive combos, juggles, and aerial takedowns that reward your creativity with over-the-top action.
With “Mad Dog” style, utilize speed, agility, and flair to deliver precise yet powerful blows that stun your enemies into submission.
Or make enemies walk the plank with the “Sea Dog” style that has you dual-wielding short swords and deploying tricky pirate tools to kick some serious booty.
