Rare has confirmed that season seven of Sea of Thieves is seeing a delay, but to make up for it season six is getting extended.
Season seven of Sea of Thieves was shown off last month as part of Xbox and Bethesda’s showcase, an update that has been planned since before the game launched. The Captaincy update, as it has been dubbed, was meant to bring in the ability to fully customise your cabin, as well as finally let you name your ship.
Rare announced the delay in a blog post on the official Sea of Thieves website, where it went into the reasoning behind the decision. “With such a fundamental update to the game, there is a lot of hidden work to be done in the background,” reads the post.
