The Plunder Pirates mobile game has been updated to version 2.0 and, as Rovio announced, this legendary update is the biggest update in the game’s history. Among other things, it introduces Legendary Pirates, a lineup of notorious pirates, each with their own set of unique attack styles and abilities – also, a huge collection of outfits.

“Since Plunder Pirates first aweighed anchor, the game has attracted more than 8 million downloads and earned an engaged fanbase across the seven seas,” said Wilhelm Taht, Head of External Products at Rovio. “The Legendary update is a thank you to those fans and also a dazzling invitation to new players to come aboard and discover the pirate’s life.”

As part of the Rovio Stars publishing initiative, Rovio released Midoki’s online multiplayer free-for-all Plunder Pirates game back in September 2014 for iOS and April 2015 for Android. Since then, the game received multiple updates, updates that tweaked the gameplay and improved the user experience. But none compare to the Legendary Pirates update that’s just been released. This is the biggest update since the game’s launch back in September 2014.

Here’s what it has to offer:
  • Legendary Pirates – a lineup of legendary pirates with a huge collection of fashionable outfits. Find them, recruit them, and use their unique attack styles and abilities to your advantage.
  • New treasure chests – mysterious booty and untold treasures are stored in 6 new treasure chests.
  • New Rumble leaderboards – so you can compare your achievements to others.
  • New buildings – Silo building and Legendary Fort building.
  • New levels for the Ground Pounder, Mines, Stone Mason and others.


“With the Legendary Pirates update out today, the whole development team is thrilled to see the last four months of hard work finally in the hands of our amazing players,” says Chris Gage, Director at Midoki. “We’ve created a band of the most battled hardened pirates, each with their own unique skills and abilities, ready to join your crew and bring a whole new strategic element to a Plunder Pirates battle. They’re a real game changer!”
