The Legend of Pirates Online or TLoPO for short is a ongoing fan-made recreation of Disney's defunct MMO, Pirates of the Caribbean Online or PotCO.

We're not going to make any promises.  When performing a task as recreating an MMO, there are many potential problems which could be faced.  However, like many other members of the community, we're hopeful that a revival of our beloved game is possible and will do our best to deliver.

The entire project is a work in progress.  TLoPO does plan to release as a community server for the game in the future.  We expect to being closed alpha stages August 2015.

The project is in no way affiliated with The Walt Disney Company, partners, entities or any other respected owners.

The real purpose of this project is to "revive" the game, using what original files we have, making the game work exactly as it was before the game's closure on September 19th, 2013.  All changes from the original (with few exceptions), wether it be adding unreleased content, re-adding content/features which was once apart of the game and later removed, or creating brand new content & features will all be handled after our "full" release as a post-closure community server (after alpha and beta stages).

The project is being created using files from the original MMO which can be found in the game's downloadable launcher.  Such files have been made public for download.

Why isn't the project open source?  There is a similar situation with the Toontown Online community (another former Disney MMO).  One project's source code was used and redistributed amongst certain members of the community to create multiple post-closure servers, dividing the community in it's already uncertain state.  We would hate to see this happen amongst the POTCO community as well as it's state is already deteriorating.
