Think about it this way people: Disney does not only have to release the Kraken; they need to release more islands, more NPCs, a new story quest, and much more with it. If you estimate Raven's Cove developement took about 6 months, multiplay that by 5 for five new islands, then add another year to develope the NPCs and story quest, then add another year to finish the Kraken and its boss battle. Then add another half a year for finishing touches and test server time. Total: 60 Months or 5 years They were just beginning development in mid-2007, as they preparing to release PotCO live. Add the 5 years and you get that the Kraken should be released next summer, take or give a few months.
