The update also adds harpoon-equipped rowboats

Sea of Thieves is continuing its new monthly content cycle with a new update, Dark Relics, which brings along new voyages, cosmetics, Commendations, and both limited-time and permanent content. Oh, and rowboats with harpoon guns. Can't forget those.

Dark Relics Voyages will be available to any old pirate at three different locations: The Shores of Plenty, The Ancient Isles, and The Wilds, while Pirate Legends have access to an additional Voyage in The Devil's Roar. It's the same old song and dance - skeletons stole some stuff, and you have to take it back and sell it.

As mentioned earlier, along with time-limited features, the new monthly updates will also include permanent additions to the core gameplay experience. This month's Dark Relics update adds a swath of game-balancing features, bug-fixes, and other updates. Some highlights include Skeleton nerfs, improved hit detection, and yes, rowboats will now randomly generate with harpoon guns. For the full list of patch notes check out the official Sea of Thieves Dark Relics page.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
