The Pirate Queen Becomes a #1 Bestseller in China
The Pirate Queen has officially become a #1 bestselling title in China on Pico, following its debut as the platform’s top new release.
The achievement marks another major milestone for the Emmy-nominated VR experience, which continues to build extraordinary momentum worldwide. Following the success of its launch with Netvios, The Pirate Queen has captivated Chinese audiences, quickly rising to the top of the charts and cementing its status as a global hit.
Created and directed by Eloise Singer and starring Lucy Liu and Orion Lee, The Pirate Queen won the Storyscapes Award at Tribeca Film Festival and the Discovery Award at Raindance Film Festival, and was praised by critics as “remarkable,” “captivating,” and “a VR masterpiece.” Supported by Meta and the BFI, the project earned Emmy and PGA nominations for its groundbreaking storytelling and cinematic scope.
The game’s extraordinary performance in China represents more than a commercial success — it signals a growing global appetite for The Pirate Queen’s rich universe and its fearless female lead. The property is already expanding into new mediums, with a graphic novel co-written by Lucy Liu and Eloise Singer set for release in 2027, alongside a TV series in development and future game spin-offs in the works.
With its success now spanning festivals, platforms, and continents, The Pirate Queen has become the cornerstone of a rapidly expanding global franchise — and the next chapter is already on its way.
Singer Studios’ Emmy-nominated The Pirate Queen is now available on Pico, Meta, HTC, and Steam.
