Catan 5th Edition: Explorers & Pirates 5-6 Player Extension

Now 5 to 6 players can explore Catan’s wild, unknown seas in search of fish, spices, or rich new lands for settlement!

This Catan: Explorers & Pirates 5-6 Player Extension allows you to add 1 or 2 new opponents without sacrificing ease of play. As in the Catan: Explorers & Pirates expansion, you’ll build harbor settlements, ships, settlers, and sailing crews and set out across mysterious seas in search of new lands, spices, fish, and gold fields. So, get a crew of 5 or 6 together for an adventure in Catan. Challenge pirates on land and sea as you seek to win renown. Use your ships to carry loyal settlers and claim faraway territory.

Chart unknown waters and return with rich cargo. Should you prove the most able explorer and be the first to complete your noble mission, you’ll become master of Catan!
