Ship Simulator Extremes is the working title of the next instalment in the Ship Simulator series slated for release in June 2010.[7] There is currently some confusion over when the game will be released, with USA websites stating April 13[8], and European sites stating June 4, 2010.[9][10]
Additions to the game include new locations (including Antarctica and Bora Bora) as well as new ships (including official licensed Greenpeace vessels) and new dynamic weather and water systems. Following a campaign by members of their growing fanbase, Vstep agreed to include the ports of Dover and Calais (in one environment).[11]
Peripherals
A 'ship control unit', designed specifically for Ship Simulator and enabling more realistic steering, was released in 2006 by Wilco Publishing.[12] P.I. Engineering have announced ShipDriver a marine simulation controller based on their RailDriver product for release in early 2009.[13]
Critical reception
Ship Simulator has been criticised for limitations in the replication of realistic controls and the lack of open architecture preventing users from creating their own vehicles and voyages.[14] 'Slow and mundane gameplay'[15] and bugs have also been cited.[16] Reviewers did comment that the game is challenging[17] and that it has educational value.[18]
