Game Update Notes

Hello Pirate Friends,

We’re very excited to be able to resume some development on Pirate101! In this bug fix update, we were able to fix a few dozen of the pesky critters (some of which are not mentioned below because they were simply reinforcing backend stability), add new side quest content with a new farmable boss, and add some other new items not mentioned here that will appear in game later on.

KingsIsle is excited to give some attention to Pirate. We aim to use a subset of the Wizard team for any opportunity we can without impacting Wizard’s release schedule. We are still looking into doing some larger updates, but this will take more resources and time than we have currently. We’ll keep you in the loop on progress with that, but for now, please enjoy Sinbad’s new adventure and a slightly shinier and cleaner Spiral!

With fire,
Professor Falmea

NEW SINBAD ADVENTURE AND CHIMERA'S ANCHOR WEAPON

A legendary sailor and his crew have come to Skull Island... and they need your help! Does your Pirate have what it takes to win the title of Best Pirate in the Spiral? Take your corner in this quick, no-holds-barred adventure full of thrills, chills, and much crushing.

To get started, your pirate needs to be level 70 and then you can speak to Albano in Avery’s Court to begin the adventure. You can find Albano between the Coin Drop Minigame and the Privateer’s Office.
