Disney will be showing off Pirates of the Caribbean Online at this year's E3.

The MMO, set to hit next year, is based on the films and will include Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann and other characters from the movie.

Capturing the high seas and swashbuckling adventures found in both "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" and the upcoming "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest," players embark on quests for adventure and treasure in an effort to become the Caribbean's most legendary pirate. Featuring hundreds of customization options, players create and customize their own pirate, form a crew, and set sail on the high seas. Along the way they learn skills and tactics from the notorious Jack Sparrow, helping them forge alliances, hunt for buried treasure, battle evil undead forces and face off against known enemies from the movie franchise.

Pirates of the Caribbean Online is in development by the Walt Disney Internet Group's VR Studio, creators of the critically acclaimed Disney's Toontown Online, the industry's first MMORPG designed for kids and families. The game is being developed to appeal to a broad audience from teens to adults and will be available for a monthly subscription fee.
