Walt Disney Corporation has created an online world in which people can be virtual swashbucklers in the spirit of iconic movie company’s blockbuster “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise.

A massively multiplayer online role-playing game with a pirate theme befitting the film’s beloved Captain Jack Sparrow will be online by the spring, Disney revealed at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

People will be able to find the gateway to the game at the revamped Disney.com then create animated “avatar” characters to “crew-up and live the life of a pirate,” Disney executives said.

People will be able to play the game “free for as long as they want,” according to Disney.
