Turn Based Tactical Combat

Pirate-themed games have become a common theme for video game releases in recent years, and now we have to add a new one, albeit with a different approach to high seas combat and ship-to-ship battles.

Enter Flint: Treasure of Oblivion, a tactical RPG title set to arrive in the last quarter of 2024 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG). “It’s an opportunity for us to develop a game in a universe that has always fascinated us,” said developer Savage Level.

“This game gives us the chance to inform the general public about what piracy really was, often portrayed in a caricatured and erroneous manner. We propose an original way of storytelling through comics and take the opportunity to highlight the Franco-Belgian comics that have made us dream since our childhood.”

In this adventure, players will embark with Captain Flint, his second in command Billy Bones, and his crew of old sailors in search of a legendary treasure promising freedom and fortune. With a narrative based on comic books, Flint invites players to immerse themselves in a historically accurate pirate adventure seasoned with fantasy.

This game will feature turn-based combat mechanics, intertwined with role-playing and tabletop elements, particularly through dice rolling. When players assemble their crew, each member brings unique abilities they can use, allowing them to tailor their strategy to their playstyle.
