Description from the packaging.
A new face...
A new place...
A new story...
Strap in tight and jump into the ultimate space combat trading experience!
In Privateer 2, there are no rules.
You can fly over 100 different missions in 18 different ships. Check out whatever you want- unique planets, space stations, bars, prison pits and more.
But without money, you're nothing.
Ship upgrades, loadouts, repairs, wingmen, information- everything here costs money. You'll have to hunt, trade and fight to get it.
Only the fastest and the most savvy survive.
Incredible new space combat engine enables hi-speed battles between bands of pirates, greedy police, desperate privateers and you.
The ultimate space combat trading experience.
You regain consciousness, and the unfamiliar faces around you inform you that you've lost your ship in an accident. You're new to this cutthroat world of Tri-System privateers, and now your only order of business is survival. You've got just enough credits to afford a new ship, but it's going to need upgrades if you expect to live for long. The sector is full of people willing to do business, but who can be trusted? Legal or not, it's time to trade, travel, and battle your way through a place where high risk means high yield and those with the brass reap the rewards.
- Upgrade and pilot any one of the 18 intricately detailed ships into battle or on missions across the galaxy.
- Hire wingmen for protection and a cargo ship for transport as you trade commodities ranging from rare luxury items to illegal black market goods.
- There are plenty of people in need of your services. Just remember, your missions are your lifeblood, so choose carefully from the hundreds available.
- A job well done means a bountiful payoff and an opportunity to upgrade your whole operation. Acquire faster ships, better equipment and more destructive weaponry.
Starring Clive Owen, John Hurt, Jurgen Prochnow, David Warner, Amanda Pays, Mathilda May, David McCallum, Brian Blessed and Christopher Walken as Hassan.
