Pirates of the Caribbean Online is celebrating its one-year anniversary on Oct. 31. Jolly Roger has some spooky plans in store that day. As a birthday celebration, players will be rewarded in a variety of ways throughout October. The following information is straight from the game's news page.

During the month of October, 31 Basic Access Players will be randomly selected to receive a 14-day Unlimited Access upgrade! We'll also award 31 Unlimited Access Members with a special Pirates Online prize pack! Finally, we've got a very special gift planned for our Unlimited Access Founders.

The festivities will conclude with a "Live the Pirates Life" contest. More details will be released in the future.

Also, a massive game update went live today, including the introduction of Level 5 weapons, new quests, new bosses, skill point reallocation, and more.
