Rare is preparing for the quickly approaching release of Sea of Thieves ' first major content update, The Hungering Deep , by tantalizing players with a tease of all the new content. The official webpage for The Hungering Deep is now live, filled with exciting content revels for the forthcoming update like customizable flags, customizable scars and tattoos, and the introduction of an all-new instrument, the d

Flags - The days of all pirates on the sea running a white flag will be ending, as custom flags will soon join the slew of already available ship customizations. That selection includes the ol' skull and crossbones, natura

"We are storing all awarded achievements, and are working to deliver these for all affected players. There is some groundwork in the patch arriving [today] that enables us to then deliver the delayed achievements via a service-side change, but ETA on this is a little loose whilst we work on the plan. We are hoping to enable this by the end of the week, and will share more information so

The final clue, the one bit of info that makes all of Sea of Thieves ' cave paintings and Easter eggs seem like something more, is a piece of concept art Rare showed a while back during a comic convention. It's for a figurehead, as-yet-unreleased in Sea of Thieves , featuring none other than a large bear holding a shield adorned with a red b

Tattoos & Scars - Up until now player character tattoos and scars were assigned and unchangeable after character creation. Players will now be able to purchase and customize their pirate's fleshy accessories as they ple

The reward for selling even the most valuable chicken types (like the gold-feathered ones) is miniscule and only a tiny fraction of their actual value when on a voyage. So, unless your crew is tasked with acquiring livestock, don't waste time capturing and transporting animals. They have virtually no va

In addition to the new region itself, Forsaken Shores brings a plethora of other interesting elements to gameplay. Rowboats are also new. You can find them washed up on beaches, claim them for your own, and sneak around largely unseen. As Destructoid reports, the uses of this in PvP are going to be as devious as they are hilari

In the early hours of playing it's hard not to be enamoured with the idea of capturing chickens and pigs (and later, snakes) and housing them on your ship, either as a mascot, or as an item to sell to merchant traders at an outpost. Do

Gold is everything for a pirate and this holds true in Rare's must-anticipated Xbox exclusive Sea of Thieves . In addition to having a grand old time sailing the high seas with friends, Sea of Thieves is built around its gold economy. Its progression system is solely focused on cosmetics meaning players use gold (very large amounts of it) to upgrade the look of their weapons, gear, costume, and even elements of their s

Alongside the wave of permanent content within The Hungering Deep comes a bevy of time-sensitive content as well, the most exciting of which is a limited adventure. It all begins with the no-legged pirate Merrick, who'll set the player on a "trail of riddles and rumors" in pursuit of the creature he calls his nemesis. As is implied, the adventure won't be available forever -- and neither will its exclusive rewards. Just when the event will end isn't clear, but don't wait too long to join in the

Aside from that, Forsaken Shores also brings a generous helping of new cosmetics and titles to earn, alongside tweaks to make the inventory a little more user-friendly. Is all this enough to tempt players back? That’s up to you to decide. It’s free, though, so that’s definitely a st

The good news, though, is that Rare is still tracking player’s progress on Sea of Thieves achievements, so when they are re-enabled the achievements completed should unlock. Granted, Rare also said that players should receive all of their missing gold and reputation once things calmed down with the servers, and many reported not receiving everything they earned. In other words, don’t be surprised if some achievement progress is not entirely accurate once everything is re-enab
