Action-adventure game DAVY x JONES announced
Game studio PARASIGHT has announced its brand new game.
Revealed yesterday, DAVY x JONES is an action-adventure title where players control the iconic pirate Davy Jones in their quest to take down Blackbeard. An official reveal trailer can be seen here.
A synopsis for the game reads:
In DAVY x JONES, players will step into the boots of the legendary pirate himself—betrayed, robbed, and ultimately - beheaded. Jones awakens in The Locker, a pirate hell shattered into islands floating on an endless sea of clouds. But death is merely the beginning of his epic tale of revenge. Control the captain's headless body — Jones — and forge an unlikely alliance with your stubborn skull — Davy — as you reclaim your legendary Artifacts and face your eternal nemesis: Blackbeard.
Fight like a true pirate legend, wielding sword, gun, and even your own sharp-tongued skull — whose tentacle makes for one hell of a grappling hook. Soar between cloud-swept islands aboard Abby, your half-ship, half-whale vessel, and face towering behemoths in desperate battles across the depths of The Locker. Rally your crew and avenge your honor by battling through hordes of cursed souls, fiends, and legendary pirates on your quest to escape the underworld!
Bartosz Kaproń, CEO and Creative Director of PARASIGHT said this about the title:
"We're beyond excited to finally unleash DAVY x JONES upon the world. At PARASIGHT, we believe great stories should hit as hard as the action—and in DAVY x JONES, they literally do. We split our protagonist in two—his skull and his body—and threw them into the pirate underworld to fight their way back to legend. It’s our wildest journey yet, packed with surreal adventure, larger-than-life characters, and just enough surprise to keep things fun. If you've ever dreamed of swashbuckling through the afterlife with your own severed head cracking wise beside you—this is your game.”
DAVY x JONES will arrive on PC and consoles. The game can be wishlisted on Steam right now here.
