Bringing the legend of the fearsome pirate Davy Jones to life in a way never seen before, indie developer The Parasight has revealed the announcement trailer for its upcoming single-player FPS game, Davy x Jones. Slated for release on PC via Steam and unspecified consoles, this wild adventure blends supernatural storytelling with fast-paced shooting and dark humor.
A Headless Hero with a Soul to Reclaim
Unlike any other pirate-themed game, Davy x Jones doesn’t just reference the infamous sea legend—it puts you in control of him. Or rather, what’s left of him. In this unique FPS experience, players control the headless body of Jones, while his detached, talking skull floats ahead, guiding the way with sarcastic quips and grim insights.
The game’s core narrative centers around betrayal and vengeance. Beheaded and cast into The Locker—a cursed pirate underworld inspired by nautical myth and legend—Davy and Jones must reclaim powerful stolen artifacts and face off against the ultimate foe: Blackbeard.
The Locker Awaits: Shoot, Loot, and Survive
The underworld of The Locker is a fractured realm made up of nine haunted sea islands, each crawling with twisted fiends, cursed souls, and mythical monsters—including the legendary Kraken. Armed with supernatural weapons and fueled by revenge, players must navigate shifting seascapes and brutal encounters to restore Davy’s legacy and body.
More Than Just Guns and Guts
While action takes center stage, Davy x Jones also focuses heavily on story. The Parasight is known for narrative-rich experiences, and this game is no exception. Expect a mix of dark comedy, emotional beats, and bizarre mythological twists as you traverse a pirate hellscape full of secrets.
Release Window and Availability
Davy x Jones is currently in development for PC via Steam and consoles (to be announced). No official release date has been set, but fans can wishlist the game on Steam now. A playable demo is expected later this year.
Davy x Jones is shaping up to be one of the most innovative FPS games of 2025—perfect for players craving a strange, story-driven shooter wrapped in saltwater, skulls, and supernatural mayhem.
