Microids and Savage Level are thrilled to reveal a new video of Flint: Treasure of Oblivion, coming December 17, 2024 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The new video highlights essential mechanics such as crew management, the diverse arsenal of weapons, and the intensity of unarmed combat—offering players a closer look at the strategic depth and role-playing opportunities that await.

Crew Management and Archetypes

Building the perfect crew is critical to success. Players can recruit legendary pirates like John Silver and Mary Read, alongside other skilled adventurers. With 12 distinct archetypes, including Surgeons, Swashbuckler and Helmsmen, each crew member brings unique abilities to the team.

Archetype Combos tips: Positioning matters! Place two characters from the same archetype side by side in combat to unlock powerful new skills and devastating combos, giving you a tactical edge in battle.

Weapons and unarmed combat

The combat in Flint: Treasure of Oblivion combines strategy and adaptability. The game offers a wide variety of weapons, from sabers to pistols, providing unique tactical options based on play style. Unarmed combat also allows players to perform brutal actions, such as tackling or crushing enemies, which can be combined with environmental interactions for maximum impact.

A second video unveiling even more gameplay mechanics is on the horizon. Stay tuned for more surprises in the weeks leading up to launch!
