Summary
Sea of Thievesdetailed its new Safer Seas mode, which allows players to sail in their own private lobby without having to worry about battling against other players. The new mode premieres on December 7.
Sea of Thievespreviously announced that it was working on private servers, and some players are ecstatic to know that this addition is only days away.Sea of Thievesis an open-world game that allows users to play as pirates as they sail the high seas, complete various missions, and battle against other player-controlled pirate ships. WhileSea of Thievesis a successful game, some players have expressed wishes for a non-PvP option, so that they can enjoy its content without having to worry about other players affecting their experience. SinceSea of Thieveshas many features other than its PvP battles, this is a reasonable request. The game’s developer, Rare, is pulling back the curtain on its new Safer Seas mode as its release date approaches.
In a video posted toSea of Thieves' YouTube channel, it’s explained that Safer Seas will allow up to four friends to play on their own server. This mode offers a wide range of content for sailors to enjoy, including trading company voyages, encounters with deadly creatures, Tall Tale story content, and more. As a tradeoff for not having to worry about PvP, Safer Seas players earn gold and reputation at 30% of the rate seen in the game’s regular High Seas mode. Sailors can still earn seasonal rewards within Safer Seas. Also, Safer Seas players cannot earn progress toward the Reaper’s Bones and Athena’s Fortune trading companies, and will be capped at level 40 for the others. To progress further, sailors will need to switch over to High Seas.
However, players can earn Seasonal Renown at the same rate seen in High Seas, and commendations and achievements can still be earned in the new mode. The video further explains that Safer Seas is a perfect mode for those stilllearning the ropes ofSea of Thieves, and is also a great option for young kids.
Sea of Thievesfeatures plenty of fun content, including the ability to earnJack Sparrow as a crewmate. Although he’s not voiced by Johnny Depp, he sounds virtually identical, creating plenty of amusing moments for sailors to enjoy.
