KingsIsle Entertainment’s Pirate101 Washes Ashore On Steam This Month

Hoist the sails and lift the anchor. On May 31 Pirate101 is setting for sail on Steam. The game, from KingsIsle Entertainment, sends players on an adventure with their own pirate crew – that they assemble themselves, traveling through dangerous skyways – because why be a pirate if you can’t also be a sky pirate? Go on adventures, solve mysteries, compete with other players in PvP, and hang out on sandy beaches, but watch out for the Armada – an army made up of clockwork soldiers.

Players can choose between one of five classes in the MMORPG: Musketeer, Swashbuckler, Buccaneer, Privateer, and Witchdoctor. During their journeys, they can recruit hundreds of companions to be part of their crew. Making proper use of their abilities is going to be important. Of course, they can also look to other players for help. Particularly when taking on the tougher bosses in the game.
