Colorful Captain Jack Sparrow weaves a tale tall as only he is capable, retelling events fans have come love, and adding new and even more far fetched adventures. Accompanying Captain Jack on his journey of fancy are the young Will Turner and his bride to be Elizabeth Swann.

Gameplay flows much like other third-person action-adventures such as God of War or Demon Stone. Players can fight alone, or team up with a friend to conquer the fast-paced, hack and slash romp through exotic locations. Other features include a player-controlled upgrade system, along with a diverse set of sword fighting and grappling moves. Puzzles in the form of mini-games can be found throughout the game's 20+ levels.
