Season 13 in Sea of Thieves started on July 25, 2024, bringing in a new set of challenges and rewards for players to enjoy. The seasonal progression in this season includes Trials that offer an extra boost of Renown, along with the option to purchase the Plunder Pass for access to exclusive items and additional Ancient Coins as rewards.
As players progress through the levels, they can unlock various rewards such as the Eclipse Hull, Bloodstone Dragon Beard, Gold Pouches, Ancient Coin Caches, and cosmetic items like Flameheart’s Revenge Makeup. The rewards are divided into different distinction levels, with each level offering unique items and bonuses for players to collect.
One of the exciting features of Season 13 is the new world event called The Burning Blade. This event involves Flameheart’s newly rebuilt flagship sailing around the map, with NPC skeleton crews attacking players. Players have the option to defeat the crew and take over the ship, which allows them to become a part of the world event themselves. The Burning Blade is equipped with cannons, a fire-ball launcher, ladders, and more, making it a challenging yet rewarding experience for players.
Additionally, map changes have been introduced in Season 13, with Reaper’s Bones dig sites appearing on several islands. These sites are guarded by NPC skeletons and can be looted or peacefully entered if players are captaining the Burning Blade. Unique voyages involving the Burning Blade and Orbs of Secrets have been added to provide players with new challenges and treasures to discover.
Throughout the season, players can expect regular updates and teases that hint at changes to the game world and its characters. The Orb of Secrets plays a significant role in advancing Flameheart’s plans, adding depth to the lore of Sea of Thieves and providing players with intriguing mysteries to uncover.
Season 13 offers a wide range of content for players to explore and enjoy, from new rewards and challenges to exciting world events and map changes. With its unique progression system and engaging gameplay features, Season 13 promises to be an exciting and rewarding experience for Sea of Thieves players.
