Sea of Thieves Season Eight Live Now

It’s hard to believe just how far this game has come and how many people are still playing it loyally. Available today is the launch of season 8 of Sea of Thieves.

Season 8 introduces the ability to engage in ship-to-ship PvP combat on demand. Using the new Hourglass of Fortune, players can declare loyalty for one of two Factions, and in the process opt-in to engage players of the rival Faction in Pirate vs Pirate battles for Allegiance, Treasure, and exclusive rewards. As players can emerge victorious in successive battles the potential for greater rewards grows alongside the risk of being targeted themselves in equal measure.

In addition to PvP on demand, Season 8 comes with 100 levels of free rewards to earn and the latest  Plunder Pass available for separate purchase. The Season also introduces two new PvP focused Milestones for Captains, allowing players to represent themselves based on their exploits in battle with other pirates.
