[h4]Special Halloween Game Mode: Rise of the Undead Fleet[/h4]

For this year’s spooky season, we’re bringing you an exclusive, seasonal game mode! From today 'till November 14th, you can conquer the Rise of the Undead Fleet.

Undead Fleet can be played with up to 15 players. Twelve human pirates face off against three Undead. Each player has their own sloop, and the Undead aim to board and sink the human ships. Once a ship goes down, its crew turns and joins the Undead.

The Undead win if they sink all human ships!

While the Undead are trying to capsize their ships, Humans need to track down treasure chests scattered across the map. Once they find a chest, they need to deliver it to Mr. Bones. If the humans gather 5000 gold before the timer runs out, they'll seize victory!

That be soundin' excitin', right mateys? Along with the new game mode, we’ll be rolling out a bunch of patches, which you can read about right here.

So, pirates, beware the monsters lurking in the shadows, for All Hallows' Eve is nearly here. Get ready to sharpen yer cutlasses and prepare for a night o' fright!
