Ahoy, my fellow Pirates!
Kingsisle has been releasing to the public these past couple of months regarding a new update that is on it's way soon!
From the images we've been receiving, many can already speculate that this update involves new quests. What type of quest? Well, people aren't too sure yet. Several optimistic people are hoping that these images are teasers to Book 15, but some are starting to say that these new quests do not involve a new book. Make no mistake, there is bound to be new content, but there is too little evidence pointing to a brand new world...for now.
In their November Newsletter, Kingsisle mentioned that they would be releasing "mysterious screenshots" and "tantalizing sneak peeks" over the next couple of weeks to come. Since then, 2 more images have been released to the public, both of which are set in Skull Island.
This first image depicts a shark of a species we've never encountered before inside of the Witchdoctor sanctum speaking to us, saying that he'd "Seek passage with you". This was the third image released by the P101 crew and this got people really wondering if this new update was going to be a new world.
Upon research in the community, people have found out that the name "Carcarius" is a reference to the shark genus "Carcharias", or the Sand Shark. With this new discovery, theorycrafters of the community are speculating that our pirates might be going to Krokotopia in the near future to uncover more mysteries of Marco Pollo's map. Many speculations before these teaser images have been made that our Pirates would eventually head to Krokotopia, back by several concept art images discovered by community members.
Exciting, I know, but we aren't done yet.
This image was the second to be released to the public by Kingsisle and it depicts an Aquilian dock of some sort with an Eagle NPC waiting beside an Aquilan boat. In the far distance, you can see a giant eagle holding a colosseum on it's back.
Speculations from EVERYWHERE are saying that this new dock is related to Ship PVP, a highly requested feature to be added to the game ever since the game was released back in 2012. History shows that the ancient romans would fill up their colosseum with water and have naval battles with ships. A fun thing to do indeed.
Teasers are always exciting, and these teasers in particular are surely tickling the minds of theorycrafters alike. I guess only time will tell what's really to come to the realms of Pirate101.
Until next time!
