Playmobil Pirates likely for the UK too

Publisher confirms it's in negotiations to make it happen

Playmobil Pirates likely for the UK too

Last week a first screenshot emerged – along with first info on the game – of Playmobil Pirates: Blackbeard's Treasure, complete with patch-wearing, bearded Playmobil man saying something in German that we didn't entirely understand.

That was because the game had only been officially announced for Germany, but Berlin-based publisher HMH Interactive has since been in touch to confirm it will be releasing Playmobil Pirates across Europe in September (it comes translated into French, Spanish, Dutch and English).

Its publisher says it's also in negotiation with UK publishers to bring it to our shores, so with a little luck we'll also be able our hands on Lego's closest rival a little after we've finished playing with Lego Indiana Jones.
