Besides Sea of Thieves, there is a significant lack of AAA pirate-themed video games on the market. Some noteworthy pirate titles came out years ago, and the next AAA pirate themed game seems a ways off as Ubisoft has revealed little about Skull and Bones.The golden age of piracy is a fascinating time that has been explored in different franchises like Pirates of the Caribbean and Assassin's Creed, but the AAA pirate video games are too few and far between. That leaves a market just waiting to be filled, and there was once a pretty fun MMO that could fill it again.
In 2007, Disney Online released Pirates of the Caribbean Online. It was an MMO set in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, which was at the height of its popularity. It let players live in Jack Sparrow's world and go on adventures alongside iconic characters. However, the servers were shut down six years after launch and players were left without a pirate MMO to fill the time. There have been some fan revivals since, but the original title has been shuttered for good. In the age of revivals and reboots, maybe Pirates of the Caribbean Online deserves a comeback.

They got to meet iconic characters like Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, Elizabeth Swan, and Barbossa as they sailed across the high seas. It was the perfect treat for Pirates of the Caribbean fans, and a decent game for those who wanted to be a pirate.
