When is the new season update being dropped? Is it today or the 21th?
When does new update drop?
@bartho1omeus updates happen on wednesdays...so if, then tomorrow...but I highly doubt it...probably next week on 27th
So as of just now 10:54 GMT 20/01/2021 the game says that the Grogmanay and the 12 Deeds events have less than 14 hours remaining, now i dont know if that means anything but maybe it indicates when the update is... I wouldnt imagine that Rare will leave the game for 7 days without any special event..
I might be wrong but i think that they are going to start dropping updates in the middle of the night GMT. We can but wait and see.. But to answer the original question, I suspect that the update will drop tonight or early tomorrow morning, like 1 or 2am GMT... Like i said its just my opinion and i may very well be wrong... I would like to get up on update day and the new events etc are ready to play tho..I checked the events tab and clicked on "special events". A message pops up saying: CALM WATERS: "The Bilge Rats are busy preparing more exciting Events. Check back later to see what they have in store!".
I tried to see how long the time-limited items are being offered in the store but I could not find this information. The only thing I could find is this bright orange clock icon in the top right of a time limited item offered in the pirate emporium.
@bartho1omeus they can change the time-limited special deals in the emporium whenever they feel like it now so that timer doesn’t really have any meaning anymore.
@Gundy-the-Shark Thats very true, It used to be a good indicator of when the update was going to be uploaded but it seems like it isnt anymore... I would think it will be on Wed 27th.
Until Rare announce when the update is, its all speculation and nobody knows exactly when it will be i suppose. Will will have to wait and see.
News just-in: January 28th (according to announcement on the Discord)

@realstyli seems odd that its a Thursday though.
Oh, I know. I had the same thought.
