This is a fine example why you shouldn't make online-only games without any kind of single player portion. Got this game in 2017. Seems like it got it's last update in 2018. At that time, I didn't had the capable PC to even start it. I completely forgot this one in the meantime, had many other great games to play. Now I have the time and PC to try it out.

BATTLECREW Space Pirates is a multiplayer action platform shooter developed and published by DONTNOD ELEVEN that combines hero-based combat, side-scrolling gunplay, and fast arcade-style movement into a chaotic competitive experience. Built around team-focused multiplayer battles, the game attempts to merge the energy of modern hero shooters with the speed and mobility of classic 2D action games. While the concept itself is highly creative, the game ultimately became a niche multiplayer title remembered more for its strong gameplay ideas than for long-term commercial success. Set within a colorful science-fiction universe filled with eccentric pirates and futuristic technology, the game focuses entirely on competitive arena combat rather than story-driven progression. Players battle across stylized environments inspired by comic books and arcade shooters, where movement and positioning matter just as much as raw aiming skill. The exaggerated presentation immediately gives the game a playful identity, and its lighthearted tone helps separate it from more serious military-themed online shooters. The gameplay revolves around team-based matches where players choose unique characters …
