Last Pirates: Die Together is a co-op comedy horror game in which your pirate can lose their butt, and a lost butt is useful: slap it on a fallen teammate and they come back to life. It arrived on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox PC on November 11 through Game Preview.

The game is from RetroStyle Games, a studio based in Kyiv, and it takes some inspiration from R.E.P.O., another physics-based co-op horror game. Up to four pirates visit cursed islands, grab treasure and haul enough of it back to the ship to meet the captain's quota. Monsters, traps and the game's wobbly physics get in the way. Your pirate has stretchy arms that can pick up almost anything, from loot to furniture and doors. Apparently you can even play basketball with the detached butts.

What is the Mimic in Last Pirates?

The Mimic is a monster that copies another player's appearance and replays snippets of their voice chat. So the teammate calling for help might not be a teammate at all.

Price, platforms and release date

The Xbox version costs $9.99 and is not the finished game. The Game Preview build has a lobby browser, weapons, unlockable outfits and progression systems. There is also a solo mode if you would rather not crew up. Crossplay with Steam is fully supported, and so is Xbox Play Anywhere. RetroStyle says Xbox and Steam will get updates at the same time.

The game spent the past few months in Steam Early Access. According to the studio, it has passed 350,000 Steam wishlists, and its demo made the top 50 during Steam Next Fest. That is quick for a project that began as an internal game jam in January 2026. Another event is planned for winter, and the full release is scheduled for Xbox and PC in the first quarter of 2027.
