About this gameFull description from Steam

World of Sea Battle is a massive open-world MMO set in the Age of Sail, where every captain shares the same sea but charts their own course. Hunt pirates, cross swords with other players, explore distant shores, haul cargo and grow your fleet. The economy is in the players' hands, and guilds wage war for territory. Weigh anchor in a humble schooner and rise to command a 100-gun first-rate ship of the line. Over 50 historical sailing ships from the 16th to 19th centuries await: schooners, galleons, brigantines and frigates. Upgrade your ships, refit their gear, change their look and build a fleet that suits the way you sail. Set sail into the unknown. The whole Archipelago is one seamless sea, from the warm southern islands to the icy north. Merchants, pirates and other captains sail it alongside you, and any sail on the horizon could be prey or a threat. Past the edge of the map lies the Endless Sea, uncharted and full of danger. Watch the wind, change course and pick your moment for a broadside. Round shot smashes hulls, bar shot tears sails and grapeshot cuts down crews. Enemy too heavily armored? Set it ablaze with heated shot. The right shot at the right moment can decide the battle. And if cannons aren't enough, close in on your enemy and board their ship. Every captain chooses their own path to fortune. Haul goods between regions: tobacco and wine from the south, iron from the north. Turn raw materials into finished goods and sell them to other players on the exchange. Or load your hold with fishing gear and go looking for shoals: the catch feeds your crew, and what's left sells for a good price. Tired of honest work? Board merchant ships and sell the contents of their holds in port. Amass enough gold and you can buy a private island of your own. It becomes your fleet's stronghold and a hub of commerce, with riches flowing in from distant mines and workshops. Even the most seasoned captain needs a crew they can trust. Form a flotilla with friends to conquer the seas together and gain the upper hand on the waves. Ready for more? Join a guild, fight for ports, plot political intrigue and challenge for control of the Archipelago.
