Atari and Firaxis have announced that Sid Meier's Pirates! has gone
gold and is on target for a U.S. in-store date of November 22nd.

In Pirates! you take the leading role of a Pirate Captain in the 17th
century Caribbean trying to become the most revered and feared pirate
in history - exploring high seas and exotic ports, overtaking enemies
in fierce naval battles, engaging in duels and attempting to seize
valuable booty. The new Pirates! carries on with the great gameplay
and design simplicity tradition of the award-winning original while
adding more challenging and exciting battle options, and a deeper and
more varied role-playing experience. In addition, an entirely new
game engine delivers updated gameplay, stunning new features,
spectacular 3D graphics and enhanced surround sound.

A pre-order program is currently under way allowing consumers that
reserve a copy of the game to receive a special Limited Edition for
the same price. The Limited Edition is packed with tons of bonus
material including the original Pirates! game, the full behind the
scenes making-of video, developer diaries, unique exclusive content
and bonus material.

Bei uns sollt´s Anfang Dezember erhältlich sein.

Endlich.
