In case you weren’t sick of looking at Johnny Depp’s face, here comes another stab at a Pirates of the Caribbean MMO. No, it’s not Pirates of the Caribbean Online, and it’s not the player emulator for Pirates of the Caribbean Online either; this is Pirates of the Caribbean: Tides of War, a Disney-sanctioned mobile MMORTS by South Korean studio Joycity. And it’s got Depp’s smarmy mug all over it.
“In-game, players will become pirates in the world of the Pirates of the Caribbean and will experience different playstyles with various strategies through building and ship construction and troops training. Furthermore, players can form an alliance to battle against each other or defeat common monsters floating the sea. Equally, players will encounter familiar characters from Pirates of the Caribbean, including Jack Sparrow, Captain Barbossa and Will Turner.”
