Pirate101 head start begins on October 8th

If you're a fan of family-friendly MMO Wizard101 and can't wait to get a taste of KingsIsle's next project, today is your day: Pirate101 will begin its head-start play week on October 8th. While the actual game doesn't hit digital shelves until October 15th, you can hop in and get to pirating right this second by picking up specific membership types or snagging a pre-launch game bundle (beta participants are also invited). Additionally, Pirate101 game cards will be available in retail stores as of October 8th.
