Sea of Thieves has another big update today, adding it’s second story driven Adventure, “Forts of the Forgotten.” This free but limited time event runs from March 24th – April 7th.
Time to stage a daring prison break as Sea of Thieves’ second story-driven Adventure, ‘Forts of the Forgotten’, goes live! Rally your crew, rendezvous with Belle and set sail for the Sea Forts pulled through from the Sea of the Damned by Captain Flameheart. Expect heavy resistance from a Phantom phalanx as you battle through these ghostly fortifications to rescue the missing inhabitants of Golden Sands Outpost!
Forts of the Forgotten is part of a new suite of adventures that have been designed to take part in an ever-evolving story within the world. This second adventure follows on from the first, Shrouded Islands, in which players had to defeat Soulflame Captains, weakening the barrier between the living world and the Sea of the Damned. This weakened barrier has allowed Flameheart to summon Sea Forts into the Sea of Thieves.
If you missed Shrouded Islands and feel a bit out of the loop, don’t worry. Rare has posted a dedicated story primer on the official website that should get you up to speed. Each adventure will be preceded by one of these primers so you can brush up on the story before you head out on the new adventure.
The new update is free to all players that have purchased Sea of Thieves. The size of the patch varies by system and can be found below:
