A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.
There will be just 24 hours to enter each theme via social media channels, so be sure to raid your chests and prepare your screenshots in time! Once a theme opens for entry, get sharing your screenshots, and make sure you include the name of the theme you’re entering in your post. See the How to Enter section below for the full rundown of rules.
Once a theme has closed, our crew will whittle down the entries to select the sailors they felt found the perfect fit. We’re excited to invite back special guest judges from our Art team, who will have the final decision on the 12 winning marauders, with three pirates per category taking home their own pair of gloves.
The Themes Each theme will start at 9am UTC on the dates detailed below with entries accepted via social media for a full 24 hours.

How to Enter We’ve got eyes everywhere, so you’re free to submit on a variety of social channels, but each comes with its own quirks as follows:
- To enter on Twitter, make sure you include @SeaOfThieves and #StyleOfThieves.
- For {LINK REMOVED}Instagram, you just need to post using #StyleOfThieves.
- Add your entry as a reply to that day’s theme post on {LINK REMOVED}Facebook.
- Post your entry with #StyleOfThieves in the #pirate-fashion channel of our official {LINK REMOVED}Discord server.
Picture Perfection We’ve put together some handy hints and rules to help you capture your pirate’s best side:
- No Costumes on the catwalk – we want to see your creativity and individuality in how you mix and match items, so no all-in-one Costumes or complete cosmetic sets.
- Unless a theme calls for it, all shots should be solo snaps, not crews. Only the pirate in the picture will be eligible for the prize.
- Find a simple or plain background to pose against to let your outfit pop. Backgrounds and locations will not be considered when judging the outfit.
- Lighting is key, so find a well-lit spot to fully show off your picks – any coloured or tactical lighting won’t be considered part of the outfit.
- Toggle off your HUD for that clean finish!
- Screenshots should be true to the game – no editing or filters.
- Keep your submissions to a 16:9 or 1:1 ratio, making sure your entire outfit is in shot, to help us when framing the winners.
- While emotes are allowed, any features added to the outfit via the emote won’t be taken into consideration during judging.
- One shortlist will be compiled per theme, using entries across all platforms, meaning it’s not necessary to post your submission to all channels. If you make sure you use the correct tags, we will see it!
