Developer featurette details gameplay variety and changes to trading sim’s strategic formula
Ridgewood, NJ – June 18, 2020 – Publisher Kalypso Media and in-house developer Gaming Minds Studios today announced that upcoming trading sim, Port Royale 4, is now available in closed beta on Steam. Previously exclusive to customers pre-purchasing the game from the Kalypso Store, access to the beta has now been extended, granting all Steam pre-orders entry as well.
Available in English and German, the Port Royale 4 beta includes the game’s tutorial, full Spanish campaign and newly added English-nation campaign, and the option to play as England or Spain in the game’s Free Mode. Players are also invited to complete a survey to shape the game ahead of its full release on September 25, 2020.
Arriving with the Steam beta is an updated beta roadmap and the developer featurette video (seen above), in which Gaming Minds Studios Creative Director, Daniel Dumont, dives into Port Royale 4’s varied gameplay as well as important changes to the series’ fourth entry, such as turn-based naval combat.
Port Royale 4 is available for pre-purchase on the Kalypso Store in two variants: a Standard Edition, which includes the base game on release and full access to the closed beta, and an Extended Edition, which adds a digital soundtrack and exclusive in-game bonus content.
