Next month, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag spin-off Assassin's Creed Pirates will sail onto the choppy waters of the iOS App Store and Android's Google Play.

It's all about sailing around the Caribbean in your pirate ship, and getting into naval battles with enemy frigates and boats. You can sail your sea skipper in first person, or use a top-down tactical view.

There are also RPG elements, where you aim to recruit a crew of sailors, upgrade your ship, and unlock loads of perks. Plus, there's a full story with links to the main Creed plot.

We'll have more to say over the coming days, but we've put together a brief hands-on video to whet your whistle. Watch it above.
