And while us players are certainly not getting what we paid for (yet), the devs are feeling the stress as well. This is where the devs step in to explain the situation and plan going forward, and they've done so in a very smart

The first Pirate Legend has now been found, in Twitch streamer Prod1gyX . Rather than this being a cause of celebration for Sea of Thieves players, however, this has instead been a scene of major disappointment. The streamer has been widely criticized for the way in which he has reached the rank of Pirate Legend, relying on boosting from other players to get the status rather than making it there of his own accord. Essentially, other players helped out Prod1gyX with voyages, doing the majority of the work but sharing in rewards, leaving some feeling as though the streamer is more Billy Bones than Long John Sil

Not wasting anytime since the game really only released worldwide yesterday, Rare Studio Head Craig Duncan and Sea of Thieves Executive Producer Joe Neate got together and shot the above video from their offices to offer the first official Sea of Thieves "Developer Update."

This is where other players will be redeeming valuable loot and when they're holding said loot, they cannot also have a weapon at the ready, nor can they sprint. This is an easy kill and since you're at the NPC already to redeem the loot, it's an instant redemption for your t

Commendation achievements also double as Pirate Titles, and are unlocked when certain deeds are done within the game, such as completed a certain number of voyages or earning a particular amount of gold. These achievements range in difficulty from Grade 1 through Grade 5 and upon unlocking the fifth and final grade of Commendation in each set, a matching Pirate Title is awar

Stories of the Kraken have existed as far back as E3 2016, but so far Rare has mostly managed to keep it hidden from the public. Alongside the dynamic storms that can hit players at any time , the Kraken is less of a boss and more of a thing in the game that can appear out of nowhere.

Players may even find the destroyed remains of ships as well, presenting an opportunity to loot valuable che
