Armada of the Damned was announced in 2009 as an open world action-adventure role-playing game set for a 2011 release. It was scheduled to be released alongside the second film, but suffered several delays during development. That same year, Pirates of the Caribbean Online was released. The game, released as a tie-in to the film of the same name, follows the same story explored in both the second and third films, and includes new characters and missions. The video game, At World's End, followed in 2007.

The Legend of Jack Sparrow, released in 2006, featured several adventures of Sparrow after the events of the second film, Dead Man's Chest (2006). The games are set in the same universe and storyline as the film, but the former is a prequel involving Captain Jack Sparrow and the latter had no relation to the characters featured in the film.

The first two games, The Curse of the Black Pearl and Pirates of the Caribbean, released by TDK Mediactive and Bethesda Softworks respectively, are based on the first film in the franchise, The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003).

Although the franchise originated from ride attractions, it gained mainstream popularity in the 2000s with the release of the film series created by Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, which was followed by the release of several video games attached to both the films and the franchise.
