New Year - New Adventures
 | Updated Developer Diary 2008 was a blast but Pirates don't spend their lives looking over their shoulder - we're looking ahead to a 2009 that's packed with game updates, and other improvements based directly on your feedback! For example, we're making the game run better on your machine. We're also making it easier for you to interact with your crew and your Pirate! But wait, there's more! See what's on the horizon for 2009. |
Port Royal Destroyed
| New Town Rises from the Ashes - Tours Daily As you may have read, something's going on in the Caribbean -- specifically Port Royal. In the coming days, you'll see the town turned to ruins by a cataclysmic event - what will rise from the rumble will be a completely NEW Port Royal. As one of the first game improvements for 2009, we're introducing a NEW Port Royal and our GMs have volunteered to show us around. Click here for a Tour Schedule. The new layout will take some getting used to, but once you get used to it, we think you'll agree -- the new Port Royal looks better and feels more like a real town. Click here for screenshots of the new Port Royal. |  |
New Year's Resolution
 | Be a Better Pirate in 2009 This year, the Pirates Online Crew resolves to add a ton of great new features to the game - but that's not all, we're exercising our Pirates more (Captain Walter seems to be getting a little soft around the middle) and cutting back on the sweets! What are your Pirate's New Year's resolutions? Submit yours and read others on the Grog Blog. |
