Swashbucklers: Blue VS. Grey new PC trailer

A swashbuckler is a 16th century term used to describe rough, noisy and boastful swordsmen. The 21st century PC game is called Swashbucklers: Blue VS. Grey, which is a third person action game chronicling the adventures of a young and desperate daredevil Captain Abraham ‘Nightingale’ Grey. As Captain Nightingale, you lead his ‘Warble’ cutter through bloody waters of the Caribbean in search of famous Francis Drake’s treasures…

Gamers can sail the seas of the Caribbean fending off naval attacks from the pirate scourge and English warships embroiled in the War of 1812. Players also can disembark the ship and dual, fight and shoot enemies one on one to capture apposing ships, towns and beach villages or use stealth to escape imprisonment, sabotage enemy fleets or gain valuable information on the elusive Francis Drake’s treasures.

The game’s narrative uses black humor and irony that follows the feel of the Caribbean in the 19th century when shipbuilding hadn’t quite reached its pinnacle but the spirit of the age and the wonder of recent innovations in sailing technology inspired nautical heroes.

It looks like this cowboy/pirate game was originally canceled in 2006, but maybe that was just the PS2 version and Gametrailers just got the new PC trailer.
