Safer Seas Following Guilds in October and the Skull of Siren Song Voyage in November comes Season Ten's third major feature update: Safer Seas, a new mode that offers a way to find your sea legs, immerse yourself in adventure and explore the world as you like with no other player crews present. Available now!

Welcome to Safer Seas
  • Whenever you play, you can now choose to play on either Safer Seas, which gives you a private world in which to sail solo or with your own crew, or on High Seas, the traditional Sea of Thieves experience with other roaming player crews added to the mix.
  • Safer Seas mode allows access to the vast majority of content in the game, including all our story-driven Tall Tales. Notable exceptions are PvP-focused elements such as The Reaper’s Bones and Fa...

Sea of Thieves Season Ten is well underway, with its third feature, Safer Seas, due to arrive this very week, on December 7th. But if there’s one remaining activity that’s been on the mind of at least tens of pirates, it’s when they’ll get another chance to play dress-up for prizes in a fresh bout of Style of Thieves.

Well, good news, you fashion-hungry freebooters, because these words exist to tell you that Season Ten’s Style of Thieves contest – and your next opportunity to win a pair of the delectable Fashionista’s Finery Gloves – will be taking place from December 11th–14th!

While you’re more than welcome to rummage through your wardrobe and take your pictures in advance, these four days will each offer a 24-hour window in which to enter a different theme via social media channels. Once a theme opens for entry (you’ll know because we’ll make a post saying exactly that), it’s up to you to share your stylish screenshots, including the name of the theme you’re... Read more

You can now sail on Safer Seas! This new mode lets up to four players venture out on a private game server to enjoy Sea of Thieves at their own pace. From narrative Tall Tales to fishing, and plenty more besides, we hope this helps even more pirates find adventure on our shores.

Our players' and creators' valiant efforts across Season Ten Community Weekend saw Sea of Thieves reach position 13 on the Most Viewed Gaming Categories on Twitch! While incredibly impressive, it means the Obsidian Captain’s Drapes weren’t unlocked as a bonus Twitch Drop during this event. Fear not, however – they will return, connected to future Community Weekend endeavours.

Please know that we are looking at the last two Community Weekends - the first events we have run via Twitch - and taking learnings from them on where we can improve and how stretch goals will work in the future.

Thank you for a brilliant Community Weekend

While we're not ready to unveil Season 11's features yet, we wanted to make you aware that any unique Voyages you have (time-limited or issued as part of an Event or compensation) will be lost when Season Ten ends. This includes Gilded Voyages, so use them lest you lose them!

The team are aware that the Merchant Alliance currently have no surplus stock on sale and are only offering one of each commodity at Outposts. This is not intended - we are investigating and will restore the available commodities to the expected amounts as soon as possible.

The second major update in Sea of Thieves’ Season Ten has arrived! Building on the new content introduced with Guilds in October, this update unleashes a new type of World Event in the form of the Skull of Siren Song Voyage. This emergent, competitive Voyage pits crews against one another in a race to unearth and claim the titular artefact, all at the behest of the legendary Captain Briggsy.

Crew Vs Crew The hunt for the Skull of Siren Song introduces a new competitive event to Sea of Thieves. When a Voyage begins, all players on a server will find a ghostly note pinned to their ship’s mast, offering them the chance to set off in search of this ancient and potent prize. If they accept, they’ll find themselves in possession of two maps directing them to the Skull of Siren Song Key and Chest – but the catch is that every other crew joining the Voyage will receive the same maps.

From there, players will have to battle it out to locate the Key and Chest on... Read more

Skull of Siren Song Voyage Following on from Guilds in October, the second of Season Ten’s major features is this brand new competitive Voyage – delivered as a shared emergent World Event that can be joined by any or all crews on a server, triggering a dynamic race for the prize. Available now!

Seeking the Skull of Siren Song
  • When a ghostly note appears pinned to the ship’s mast, accepting this Voyage will see Captain Briggsy bestow the crew with maps to the Key and Chest of Siren Song.
  • With other crews in competition for the same Key and Chest, players must get their hands on both items by whatever means necessary to release the powerful Skull within – but possession of each item shows the crew’s location to other players!
  • The Skull of Siren Song is a formidable ...
