Embark on a brand new adventure with Shantae, the hair-whipping belly dancing genie. When she loses her magic, Shantae must team up with her nemesis, the nefarious pirate Risky Boots in order to save Sequin Land from an evil curse. As a pirate, Shantae gains new weapons to advance her quest, slay monsters, battle epic bosses…and hopefully get her magic back in the bargain! But can she really trust her deadliest enemy? The third Shantae game is the biggest yet! Beyond Sequin Land lie cursed islands and labyrinths each hiding a new piece of Pirate Gear - Flintlock Pistol, Pirate Hat, Scimitar, Risky's Boots, and even a Cannon. Upgrade Shantae's hair and weapons or unlock advanced Fighter's Moves. Locate maps, return lost Heart Squids, collect rare loot, and laugh out loud at the weird, wild, and wonderfully humorous cast of characters. Incredible stereoscopic visuals, unlockable Pirate-Mode, multiple endings, and an unforgettable soundtrack make this one game you won't want to miss!

What is Shantae and the Pirate's Curse about?

Shantae, the half-genie guardian of Sequin Land, has been adjusting to ordinary life since losing her magical powers. Her uneasy peace shatters when the greedy Ammo Baron seizes control of her hometown and, moments later, her old rival, the pirate Risky Boots, turns up demanding to know who stole her crew and equipment. Together they discover a spreading Dark Magic tied to the Pirate Master, a fearsome tyrant and Risky's former captain long ago sealed away, who now schemes to return. Setting aside their rivalry, Shantae and Risky form a reluctant alliance and set sail across a chain of islands to stop his revival.

Should I stream Shantae and the Pirate's Curse on Twitch?

0/100 · Closed off· 1 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The only English stream here holds all 1 English viewers — once you take it out there is nothing left to reach.

The only English stream here holds all 1 English viewers. There is nothing left over for a second.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.

Where to buy

All plain links straight to the official stores. Some will become affiliate links later, and they’ll be marked with a ♥ when they are — you’ll always be able to tell, and the unmarked ones will always be there.

Is Shantae and the Pirate's Curse too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 1 person is streaming Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, and the one English stream holds all 1 English viewers — so the room is quiet because that audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.
