Sea of Thieves, the popular free-to-play pirate game, is currently undergoing maintenance as developers Rare are currently working behind the scenes to introduce Season 13. The new Sea of Thieves Season 13 is set to arrive today, and fans can expect the Sea of Thieves servers to be offline for a few hours.
The developers made the downtime announcement online at 2:11āÆa.m. PT, saying that they will inform fans when the Sea of Thieves servers will be back up, and that āCaptain Flameheart will be waitingā for them when they return.
As for exactly how long will Sea of Thieves be down, that’s difficult to say but it should not be longer than 3-4 hours. We will update you once the servers are back up, so you can get back to sailing once again.
The wait, however, will be fruitful in the end as Season 13 will commence, bringing in new content for players to experience. Captain Flameheart makes his return to the game alongside his ship called The Burning Blade, as part of a new World Event. The players have the choice to either be part of Captain Flameheartās crew or stand against him. Sea of Thieves players have to defeat Flameheartās crew which includes Obsidian Skeletons and take on the ship itself, which has 10 cannons, is immune to fire-based weapons, and its Ashen Roar attack launches a massive ball of fire upon opponents. Good luck.
If you choose the option to side with Flameheart instead, youāll get the command over the Burning Blade but will then be an open target for other players who will look to take down your new ship as part of the World Event objectives. Moreover, signing up with Flameheart also means that you have to sacrifice your old ship, but you can still transfer your inventory items to the new ship before it sinks.
Thereās a lot more to Season 13 than simply sinking or protecting The Burning Blade. Players will get to go treasure hunting beneath ancient temples, solve puzzles in mysterious crypts, and complete the rituals to unlock the rewards.
