Ghosts of the Past Call Out in Pirate101’s Newest Story Update: Through Death’s Door

Today, developer KingsIsle Entertainment invites new and existing players of the swashbuckling MMORPG to enjoy Pirate101‘s newest update: Through Death’s Door!

Austin, Texas (April 24, 2024) –Bells toll from the deep, echos of the ye parents call out. Welcome to the newest, narrative-heavy chapter in the main storyline of Pirate101… ready to set sail?

Avast ye, mateys! In Pirate101, venture to far-off lands in search of bountiful booty, epic adventures, and new discoveries! It’s a wondrous time of exploration and adventure in Pirate101, where tall ships fly the endless skies and brave the Stormgates of the Spiral. Through Death’s Door seeks to expand the story of Pirate101, with the update serving as the beginning of the game’s second story arc. Take to the endless skies and journey through a tale laced with mystery, adventure, and good old pirate charm!

Kane’s fleet is vanquished, yet the adventures in Pirate101 have only just begun! Following the retrieval of the Eye of the Liger from the rebel leader Klaw the Merciless, eerie echoes of the Pirate’s deceased parents emanate from the mystical stone. Previously warning the young Captain to abandon the quest for El Dorado, their spectral voices now forewarn of imminent peril. Unable to locate the spirits of the Pirate’s parents any longer, mediums suspect foul play — they’ve been seized! But by whom? To unravel this mystery, journey back to Aquila and embark on the perilous trek through the caverns of Tartarus, the dreaded domain of Hades. A daunting adventure awaits all ye salty sky dogs brave enough to set sail!

The Through Death’s Door update includes a treasure trove of exciting new content. For the full list of changes and improvements, check out the update notes here.
