Kingsisle has just announced that Skeletal Bosses will be added to Pirate101. This will bring various bosses that drop "highly requested items" from the game! There will be four different skeletal key bosses for the highest level of pirates. Another round of skeletal key bosses will be added later this year for players of all levels.
There are many other updates coming as well such as an expanded friends list elixir, expanded backpack elixir, and expanded bank elixir. This is something we need in Wizard101! So I'm glad we pirates will get to get something like this first. Now some may be disappointed at this moment because we haven't received a world update yet.. However, keep in mind that this is the first time years that they're updating the game more than once within a few months! It shows that Kingsisle is not giving up on the game, so we shouldn't either.
Pirate101's Future: My Prediction
This may not be the most popular opinion at the time, but I'm predicting that Kingsisle is preparing the game for Steam by adding features such as Skeletal Key Bosses to the game. Pirate101 is clearly an amazing game that I think would do very well on Steam. I'm sure many others believe the same thing. I also predict that Kingsisle will add a new world update along with the quality of life updates. Don't give up hope on the game just yet. Let's hope that they're still preparing for a world update.
