Set sail for the Forsaken Shores in Sea of Thieves


Sea of Thieves may not have had the anchor all the way up at launch, but they finally have the wind behind their sales and today it picked up again as the Forsaken Shores update has released for everyone and it is completely free.



As explained in that very educational video, the Forsaken Shores update adds a wealth of new content to the game. You can read all about it here, but here are the highlights.

A new volcanic region called The Devil’s Roar. This perilous and challenging area of the Sea of Thieves will have players encountering volcano eruptions raining down hot rocks and flowing lava, terrifying earthquakes, unpredictable geysers that can fling players into the air and dangerous super-heated water around islands.


Also new to Forsaken Shores is the Row Boat, which will be key to assisting the navigation of this dangerous new region, but also enriching all journeys across every area of the world. Players can also take on new Devil’s Roar Voyages, with increased challenge that allows players to reap greater rewards.

Celebrating this, the game will host a 4 week launch event, which will add a host fun to the game, all of the new additions will remain once the event is over though, inside of the event, players will be able to take on Cargo Runs across the world, keeping their cargo safe and delivering it in pristine condition for the highest rewards. Cargo Runs will arrive in week three of the campaign and remain a permanent fixture of the Merchant Alliance moving forward.
