Risen 2: Dark Waters, the swashbuckling pirate RPG, may have been delayed on consoles until July 31, but that won't stop PC gamers from getting a patch for there pirates.

The patch will add a few new moves to players repertoires, most notably the ability to sidestep and block many attacks. We haven't had a chance to play the game just yet, but presumably combat previously consisted of standing in place and whacking Caribbean wildlife with swords.

It also brings several rendering tweaks to improve the graphics, improvements in balancing and AI, and bug fixes galore.

While you're waiting for it to download you can check out the game's sixth making-of video above, in which a bunch of funny people speak in tongues. Good thing there's subtitles!
