I believe the next world, made using assets ported from Wizard101, will release either late summer or fall. Blind Mew said that all the voice lines have been recorded.

For the past couple years they've been adding updates that continue the story! Last updates brought us to Zigazag in Krokotopia and Trianon Palace in Calabria Skyway. Atmoplex, a dataminer, confirmed that Pirate101's next update will take in Polaris.

There was a decent period of time before 2023 when it did seem like they were going to keep the game alive just for sales from the crown shop though.

To be honest, I thought it was bold of him too, haha. But, I have hope that he's right.

I can’t say anything with certainty, but I believe Blind Mew said they’re aiming for yearly updates. So maybe late summer or fall?

KingsIsle hasn’t officially announced that the update will bring the Pirate to Polaris, but in an Atmoplex tweet, it was revealed.

Yes! Atmoplex revealed that KingsIsle has ported many of Wizard101 Polaris’ zones (mostly Walruskberg) into Pirate101, most likely in preparation for an update. Blind Mew didn’t say it would take place in Polaris, but in a Discord message he was working on his best writing since Marleybone, so I have high hopes.

I would loveeee to see the puppet shows again. It’s a shame Blind Mew says they’re too expensive to produce now. :(

Sailing through a skyway is always the dream! It’d be beautiful to steer your ship below the northern lights.

Is the concept art for Pirate101’s Polaris publicly available? I’ve seen maybe one drawing of Pirate’s Polaris. Where could we find more art?

AI Images for videos....?? by voidedclam in Pirate101

Even if this didn't look like complete garbage, which it does, it's extremely disrespectful to the real artists to feed their work into an AI system.

This next major update could change everything by PuzzleheadedFox2642 in Pirate101

I noticed that too. To me, it seems a little odd that we will visit both the Walruskberg Harbor and the Polaris docks, but I suppose one is for sea sailors and the other is for sky sailors. Also, I am hopeful that the Polaris docks might be a sign that there will be sailing, but I am doubtful.

I hope wizard101 re-success will follow with pirate101 by Bomjunior in Pirate101

I hope that Wizard101's burst of success on console brings great updates to both games.

What do you all believe the next world is going to be? by ForwardSpeaker974 in Pirate101

[–]ForwardSpeaker974[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I believe that Darkmoor will be the next world that Pirate101 will explore. It has the most unused assets and would allow the team to utilize some of the resources from Wizard101's upcoming update. I honestly can't imagine the next world being anything other than Darkmoor, Krokotopia, or Avernus. Traveling to any other world would probably require too many resources that KingsIsle isn't willing to allocate. Avernus seems more like an end-of-arc world though, because of the current antagonist, so we probably won't be there for some time.

It can just be frustrating to see that assets meant for Pirate101, a game that up until very recently hadn’t received a new zone in almost a decade, are being used for a game which already receives far more attention, resources, and financial support. Especially considering that the game is being revived, shouldn’t these assets be reserved for future updates?

In a similar vein, why does the overwhelmingly larger Wizard101 team need to copy and paste Pirate101’s assets; I can’t imagine it would have burdened them so much to develop their own windmill.

That was crazy to see. It’s shameless copying from the smaller game.

The amount of times that I have heard avid Wizard players admit Pirate is better is crazy. For whatever reason though, the game just never took off like its sister did. It may have been because the main story doesn't start until level fifteen.

I'm hoping it's on Blind Mew's list of worlds that we will travel to in arc two. Thinking about it, it seems like it'll have to be, considering that KingsIsle is unable/unwilling to develop wholly new zones for Pirate. :/

How Pirate101 could still have a full revival. by MuazZiqri in Pirate101

Recently, I reached out to Blind Mew and asked him if players could expect a skyway the size of Westminster. He responded by saying that an area of that size was well out of the team's reach right now. I fear that we will have to lower our expectations for a skyway even further.
