Where to go next is the most difficult riddle of The Hungering Deep. The coordinates of where to summon the shark come from everything said and read this post from Strategyreviewer.com so far. The "infernal ridge" hint refers to Devil's Ridge (U-24) and "don’t get too close to the Shroud!" refers to the border of the map, leading to the dead red sea. To find the exact map coordinates, note that the names of all of Merrick's loves begin with "T" and note the journal numbers which add up to "26." B

In addition to the new region itself, Forsaken Shores brings a plethora of other interesting elements to gameplay. Rowboats are also new. You can find them washed up on beaches, claim them for your own, and sneak around largely unseen. As Destructoid reports, the uses of this in PvP are going to be as devious as they are hilari

Sea of Thieves' first major free content expansion has just become available. Titled The Hungering Deep , this first of three summer updates for Sea of Thieves adds a few new systems and content pieces and is headlined by a limited time event which includes a few event-exclusive rewa

Of course, there's plenty of time for Rare to turn it around, and the most difficult part of building Sea of Thieves is already in place; although shallow, at the very least the game is fun. However, Rare may need to act swiftly to add more by way of content to the game, before those players turn to other releases that offer more. If Beddall's comments are correct, though, and Rare's own team knew about concerns over the shallow nature of the gameplay, it could be that a major shift in philosophy is requi

Unsurprisingly, it's starting to look like Rare might feel the same way. Sea of Thieves ' first Bilge Rat Adventure, the Skeleton Thrones, will be ending on June 26. Another event is expected to pick up the same day, though Rare has yet to announce what it may be. Rare will have every opportunity to launch a Banjo-Kazooie event in Sea of Thieves , so long as they've planned ahead and laid out preparations. And at this point, most Sea of Thieves players will say, "A

Sea of Thieves now has its first Pirate Legend, but other players aren't exactly happy about how this high achievement has been reached. Rare's pirate-themed title has been drawing players in with its gameplay and colorful world, and although the game has had its fair share of launch issues nonetheless the allure of earning untold treasures has proven rather tempting for gam

Rare then is shown to care deeply about bringing Banjo-Kazooie into Sea of Thieves in assorted ways. Rare's shown to have Banjo-Kazooie rewards in the works. And Rare has the opportunity to start a Banjo-Kazooie event in Sea of Thieves for the 20th anniversary if it so chooses. The stars could be align

Merrick offers this clue to look for the "fin-rock that stands in a lagoon" and it's very close by! Head to the center of Shark Bait Cove and look for the fin-shaped rock to find Merrick’s Journal XX which has two pages. The first hint is that two ships had to work together, using the drum instrument, to summon the giant megalodon shark. The second hint, "red haired and fair of face, her tavern stands at a shining place!" which refers to Tina at Golden Sands Outpost (E

Aside from that, Forsaken Shores also brings a generous helping of new cosmetics and titles to earn, alongside tweaks to make the inventory a little more user-friendly. Is all this enough to tempt players back? That’s up to you to decide. It’s free, though, so that’s definitely a st

Now, gamers everywhere have all kinds of mixed feelings about Sea of Thieves . The winning premise— piratical PvP? Sure as heckles don’t mind if we do— was let down by some unfortunate decisions on Rare’s part, and an egregious lack of content in the early days. If Street Fighter V taught us anything, though, it’s that you can release a game and then add the actual game to it later, via upda

The final clue, the one bit of info that makes all of Sea of Thieves ' cave paintings and Easter eggs seem like something more, is a piece of concept art Rare showed a while back during a comic convention. It's for a figurehead, as-yet-unreleased in Sea of Thieves , featuring none other than a large bear holding a shield adorned with a red b

Beddall, whose work on Sea of Thieves can be seen on his portfolio page , went on to explain a little more of Rare's thinking during development, suggesting that " the plans and ideas for the game were bigger than what was released ," but that the core gameplay loop of the title never really shifted. Whereas Beddall himself was hoping for more by way of " dungeons and raids ," instead he shares the genuine concerns of players over the lack of variety found in the full release of the game. His experience of working on Sea of Thieves was one where Rare was " really anal about every detail of the game " when more focus could have been put into the gameplay itself. " I have never worked on a game that was developed so slowly, " he s
