He needs to find a way off the island, collect items to repair his ship, and fight the witch La Borgne who guards the treasure she has collected over the years.
The 3rd-person gameplay is similar to the modern Prince of Persia games.
Francis Blade uses his sword, gun, and magic to fight enemies in a Caribbean setting.
There are also a lot of environment-based puzzles with acrobatic moves.
The area has been divided into 18 major sections, not all of them available right away.
Blade needs to collect new powers for his Black Buccaneer form, and can for instance take control of enemies or summon minions.
Killing enemies provides points, which can be used to offer to the voodoo god to continue when Blade dies.
About PlayStation 2
The PlayStation 2 (2000) is the best-selling game console in history, with a library exceeding 9,000 titles that spans everything from budget shovelware to genre-defining classics. That massive volume means PS2 collecting is accessible and affordable overall, but a handful of low-print-run RPGs and cult titles have become genuinely expensive — a common pattern once a console's original audience grows up with disposable income.
Gamevaro tracks Pirates: Legend of the Black Buccaneer for PlayStation 2 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Pirates: Legend of the Black Buccaneer to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS2 release dates back to 2006.
