Kraken, pigs, and chickens might soon find their way to Sea of Thieves along with new maps, harpoons, and factions. A dataminer discovered crucial content of the game.
Many players of the Sea of Thieves beta are currently criticizing the lack of content. For the closed beta phase, the developer team at Rare decided to limit the gameplay experience. They want to keep a few surprises for the release.
However, not everyone was satisfied with that. A dataminer took a closer look at the game’s code and found many new contents that have not been released yet.
Spoiler warning: If you don’t want to spoil the surprise of the game’s release, you should not read the rest of this article. After starting issues, the beta was extended by another two days.
