On February 6, the festival of demo versions started on Steam, in which the Ukrainian game Corsairs Legacy takes part. The developers have already updated the game page on Steam and opened access to the demo version.
As a reminder, Corsairs Legacy is a pirate action in the style of the famous “Corsairs”, which is created by the Ukrainian studio Mauris based on the Unity game engine. In the center of the plot is the smuggler Jack Rackham, who by the will of fate becomes a pirate. The game was announced in April 2021 and was initially planned for a 2021 land-based RPG mode release, followed by a phased development (2022 planned to add naval battles and 2023 an open world). At the end of 2021, the release of Corsairs Legacy was pushed back to 2022. However, due to the full-scale Russian invasion, the release of the game had to be postponed again. The first Corsairs Legacy game, which is supposed to start a new series, is currently scheduled for release in 2023 (the exact date is still unknown).
However, interested players can already evaluate Corsairs Legacy thanks to the release of the demo version of the game. In the first demo version of Corsairs Legacy, players can try naval combat and boarding. The project team did not have time to make all the planned changes before the start of the festival, but they have already added most of the changes according to the comments under the latest trailer.

Previously, the developers published a separate Steam page for the free version called Corsairs Legacy: Prologue. But according to the terms of the festival, the demo version must be released on the main page of the game Corsairs Legacy. Therefore, another version of Corsairs Legacy will be released on the Prologue page in the future.
The team calls the main goal of the Corsairs Legacy demo version the opportunity to receive feedback from the audience about the current implementation of the game’s mechanics and take it into account in the future release. All players who send their feedback to the developers inside the demo through the feedback form will receive a digital bonus in the release version of the game for active participation in development.
Also, the developers launched a stream on the game’s Steam page, in which project manager Volodymyr Bondarenko talks about further plans and major changes that have taken place with the team and the project after February 24, 2022.
Anyone interested in helping the project can keep the Corsairs Legacy Steam stream tab open for as long as possible. A high level of online participation in the broadcast will help to get additional viewers and thereby increase the community of the Ukrainian project.
