Welcome to a brand new month of Sea of Thieves fun! There are a quite a few bits and bobs for buccaneers to get their teeth into over these next few weeks, so grab your map and let us help you plot a course for all the Events, features and bonuses that June has to offer.

Gold & Glory WeekendFriday, June 6th – Monday, June 9th

The pirate life isn’t just about the gold, it’s also about the glory – except for when we have an Event on, and it’s actually about both. Hit the High Seas from June 6th–9th to get boosted gold, reputation, Renown and Allegiance in return for your hard work.

Pirate Emporium Gone Fishin’ SaleWednesday, June 11th – Monday, June 16th

While Season 15 is now in the rear view mirror, our love of The Hunter’s Call and their fishy friends remains. This month’s Emporium sale discounts some of the more marine life-related designs, including items from the Wrecker Wrangler, Stormfish Chaser, Lionfish and Ruby Splashtail sets. With discounts as deep as 50%, it’s an excellent time to snag yourself a bargain.

‘The Ancient Pillars’ ReleaseFriday, June 13th

Our latest Sea of Thieves soundtrack addition is the dramatic, driving anthem ‘The Ancient Pillars’, which will be available to stream on Spotify or the alternative streaming service of your choice from June 13th. Guaranteed to make the completion of any task feel grander!

June Monthly UpdateThursday, June 19th

Season 16’s second content update releases on June 19th, bringing with it revamped Reaper’s Chests! As Flameheart’s power and influence grows, these once mysteriously locked chests can now be unsealed – unleashing Order of Bone and Blade Skeletons to protect your crew and attack any foes nearby.

Of course, a new monthly update also brings fancy new wares to the Pirate Emporium and a Voyage of Luck to all players for free, so there’ll be plenty to set sail for when June’s update drops.

Fight Nights Event Thursday, June 19th – Thursday, June 26th

After making their debut late last year, Fight Nights return! Seek out combat with your Hourglass of Fate and earn double the usual Allegiance and gold for every Faction battle fought during this Event. These boosts will fast-forward your progress towards both the Blessing of Athena’s Fortune and the Skeleton Curse, so put your best foot forward and get ready for some solid seafaring scrapping.

Pride Monththroughout June
Of course, June is also Pride Month, which gives us a wonderful opportunity to celebrate all our sailors’ differences and reaffirm our commitment to Sea of Thieves’ Pirate Code. If you’re unfamiliar with the Pirate Code or just need a refresher, you can take a look here.

This year, we’re thrilled to announce that players can pick up the Progress Pride Flag from the ever-reliable Larinna outside the tavern, for the noteworthy total of 1969 gold. Proud pirates in participating territories will now be able to attach this fabulous fabric to their flagpole forevermore – as while it’s introduced as part of our Pride Month 2025 activities, it’ll stay in Sea of Thieves permanently and be available from the shipwright at any Outpost after June has passed.

We also have other celebratory events planned throughout the month, including a special stream from the studio. So stay tuned for more on what to expect as we honour our queer creators and communities! The sea calls to, and will always welcome, all pirates who wish to sail on it – and from this month onwards, you’ll be able to proudly represent the community with a beautiful banner too.
