Pirate101 is a pirate MMORPG from KingsIsle Entertainment, the makers of Wizard101, released in October 2012. It shares the Spiral universe, where islands float in the sky and ships sail the skyways, and your pirate races the clockwork Armada to find the pieces of the map to El Dorado.
Combat is turn-based on a grid, much like a board game. There are five classes: Musketeer, Swashbuckler, Buccaneer, Privateer and Witchdoctor. Your crew is the heart of progression: you can recruit hundreds of companions and chain their abilities into combos. Your ship can be upgraded for sky battles with boarding, and there is PvP, pets and housing. The Polaris world arrived in 2026.
It suits fans of turn-based tactics and light-hearted stories. Only part of the world is free; the rest is bought area by area or via membership. No Russian.
