In line with the release of the full version for the PS5, the twelfth season starts tomorrow. To give you an idea of what content awaits you in detail, Rare provided an official overview trailer shortly after launch. This is just under six minutes long and goes into detail about the new content.
Anyone who took part in the closed beta of “Sea of Thieves” on the PS5 will receive an exclusive reward at the start of the twelfth season. Here we are dealing with the “Dauntless Adventurer Sails,” which, according to Rare, “pay homage to the Vanguard Sails that the studio distributed to Xbox and PC beta players in 2017.”
These new weapons are waiting for you
In addition to the obligatory loot pass, the twelfth season includes brand new weapons. Including the double-barreled pistol, with which you can fire two single shots before you have to reload.
You can either load both barrels and benefit from additional penetrating power. In terms of range and power, the double-barreled pistol lies between the normal pistol and the blunderbuss.

In addition to light throwing daggers, the “scatter shot” is introduced in the twelfth season. The “scatter shot” enables you to shoot four iron balls in a wide arc. Using this attack, you can tear multiple holes in the hulls of other ships.
With the “Bone Caller” you summon a group of skeletons who are then at your service. To summon the skeletons, all you have to do is have a suitable ball and use it.
A wind shell and ziplines
New and useful tools are also finding their way into “Sea of Thieves” with Season 12. While it is possible to influence the wind in your favor thanks to the wind shell, the new ziplines make it easier for you to move around in selected locations.
According to Rare, the zip lines will be installed on a series of islands, outposts and skeleton forts.
A new skill is hidden behind “harpoon running”. With this skill you can balance on the lines of the harpoons or slide down them to get from point to point B quickly.
The following video provides you with all further details about the content of Season 12.
