Looking to become the caption of your ship as you sail the seven seas in Sea of Thieves? Your search ends here with this step-by-step guide on manning your very own ship.
Sea of Thieves is a live service game title that launched back in 2018, regularly delivering boat-loads of new content for those on a quest to become a pirate legend. As you set sail, you’ll earn a name for yourself across three factions of pirates, granting you access to exclusives missions and a variety of ships along the way. Eventually, your reputation as a legendary pirate will precede you, and you’ll have the power to man your own ship as its captain. Let’s cover the process of becoming a captain in Sea of Thieves and what the title entails.
You can become a captain by virtue of owning a ship in Sea of Thieves. This means you’ll need enough money â in this case, gold â to purchase a ship of your very own and act as its captain. Moreover, with a greater reputation as a pirate, you’ll have access to a wider variety of ships as opposed to just three as a first-time buyer. With the necessary gold, you can then purchase a ship by opening the main menu of the game and navigating to the My Ships tab.
Here’s a better look at your options as a first-time buyer.
Of course, your options are slim when you’re just starting out as a pirate ship captain in Sea of Thieves. To broaden your horizons, you’ll need to work on earning a name for yourself among the three factions and completing exclusive quests as you make progress on your swashbuckling journey.
