Sea Of Thieves Adds First Limited-Time Adventure, Shrouded Islands

It’s a big day for Rare’s swashbuckling adventure game Sea of Thieves, which welcomes its first new Adventure expansion, “Shrouded Islands.” The so-called Adventures are limited-time, story-focused events that are separate from the game’s ongoing seasonal updates.

The first Adventure, Shrouded Islands, has players venturing into the “ethereal mist” to uncover secrets, take part in battles, and earn new rewards. A new Adventure will come to Sea of Thieves about once every month, and these will run for about two weeks. Shrouded Islands is available until March 3.

“As Shrouded Islands opens, a new threat encroaching upon Golden Sands Outpost, the sudden disappearance of Captain Flameheart from the skies and reported sightings of the mysterious Belle have caused a hubbub on the Sea of Thieves–with Larinna, leader of the Bilge Rats, keeping a watchful eye on these strange events,” reads a line from its description. “Whenever you’re looking to venture forth on an Adventure, Larinna should have a lead to help you get started and will even beckon you over if you approach the tavern.”
