Pirates of the Caribbean Online is a MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) based on the series of movies and the Disney theme park attraction of the same name.
Plot
The game is expected to allow each player to create his/her own customized pirate character, battle other pirates, and complete pirate-themed quests both on ship and on land. Common MMORPG features such as player guilds and a virtual economy have also been announced.

An early demo of the game was shown at the E3 trade show in May 2006. The game's official website was also redesigned at that time to include a trailer, some screenshots and some concept art.
The game is being developed by the VR Studio, a group of technologists and artists that are part of the Walt Disney Internet Group. It will be the second MMORPG developed by the VR Studio, the first being Toontown Online, which was launched in 2003.
