Bounty Bay Online players can look forward to a new major expansion 'Beyond the Horizon" that's set to be released in Q4 of 2009. Within their newest planned expansion, adventurers can now venture into the Pacific Ocean! Frogster will also add six new cities on the shore of North and South America, as well as more new content and new features. In addition to this, they are planning on adding a new instanced quest line in the legendary lands of the Maya, the Labyrinth on Crete and the Caves of Gibraltar. The team has also announced five new character classes (called professions) in Beyond the Horizon; players can now become a Treasure Hunter, Armed Businessman, Royal Military Officer, Imperial Guardian or Caribbean Pirate. Each of these professions will have their own skill-tree of specialties. Finally, the team plans to implement two merchant alliances, the Iberian and the Arabian merchant alliance, where players can declare their loyalties for one or the other, and then gain access to special quest lines that give great rewards. Frogster has also mentioned that Beyond the Horizon will bring a new wedding system, new wardrobe / clothes sets, several new mini-games, several new pets, a ranking system and over 40 new main quests.
