Captaincy Update:
Status: Delayed from 2018
Release Date: Unknown
What Will be in the Captaincy Update?
“We’re adding ship captaincy as a goal for Pirate Legends… which means the ability to own and captain legendary ships,” said Executive Producer Joe Neate.
Captaincy Update is alleged to introduce:
*Ship ownership
*Ship naming
*Exclusive customisation (for both Pirate and Ship)
*Pets (read more below)
While ship naming and customisation are self-explanatory, the ‘ownership’ idea is interesting. As the game currently stands, ships are entirely disposable, so it’s unclear how a ship that you own would work.
Pets:
Status: Delayed from 2018
Release Date: Unknown (to release with Captaincy Update)
Pets will be Sea of Thieves’
Introduction to microtransactions (though Rare have previously stated they’re potentially looking into having them being earned through in-game achievements as well).
“I can have a monkey in a hat on my shoulder. I can have a cat. But other people will be able to interact with my pet, too.” Joe Neate said.
Confirmed pets so far include:
*Parrots
*Monkeys
*Cats
Rumour has it that dogs may also make an appearance, but I haven’t been able to find anything confirming that.
