A mysterious fog has come to the Sea of Thieves with our latest free content update: Shrouded Spoils! But that's not all this update brings with it. As well as navigating this new emergent threat, you and your crew will have to face off against feistier Krakens, fearsome new Megalodons unleashed in the wake of The Hungering One, six freshly infested Skeleton Forts and, of course, you'll need to be on the lookout for roaming Skeleton Ships.
But with new dangers come new rewards! Magic-infused gemstones, extended ship customisation and spoils to be won in Kraken and Megalodon battles.
We don't know about you, but to us this sounds like the perfect opportunity to get out there and create some incredible Sea of Thieves content. Sound good? Excellent!
Shrouded Spoils Creator Contest
From December 5th 2018 to January 2nd 2019, we want to see your best Shrouded Spoils-related content!
The winning entries will uncover a treasure trove of loot. Our top two picks will receive a Sea of Thieves Limited Edition Controller, Shrouded Spoils T-shirt, 30 Bilge Rat Doubloons and an Ebon Flintlock Pistol for your pirate!
Three runners-up will receive a Shrouded Spoils T-shirt, Sea of Thieves Journal, 15 Bilge Rat Doubloons and an Ebon Flintlock Pistol!
We'll be looking for submissions in the following categories:
- Best Shrouded Spoils Video - We want to see your best video clips from Shrouded Spoils! With the treacherous fog rolling into the Sea of Thieves, we’d love to see familiar islands in a new light or unexpected encounters in the fog. We’re also keen to see crews taking on newly populated Skeleton Forts or previously unseen Megalodons for their rich rewards.
- Best Shrouded Spoils Fan Creation - Has Shrouded Spoils inspired you to get creative? Perhaps the array of Megalodon patterning has made you feel like breaking out the paints, or you’d like to recreate some of the new spoils such as the Mermaid Statue Gems or super new Stronghold Gunpowder Barrel? Don’t keep your talents hidden under a shroud!
