Sea Of Thieves Has A Monkey Island Easter Egg

The entire level of Sea of Thieves: A Pirates Life was that it served as a crossover occasion between Uncommon’s pirate recreation and Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean sequence. However tucked away on the finish of the enlargement is a secret that has nothing to do with Captain Jack Sparrow, or actually Sea of Thieves for that matter.

I’m being bizarre about this as a result of I’d say it’s a reasonably main spoiler, so if you happen to’re taking part in the sport and don’t need to discover out forward of time, get out of right here.

In the event you simply need to see what it’s, although—and it’s very properly finished—then test it out under.

Nonetheless right here? OK, so if you happen to end A Pirate’s Life, you get to discover a shipwreck.

And as you method that ship, you begin to hear a well-known tune…

The music! The little bits of lore! The map! The music! It’s all simply so very cool, and whereas in hindsight it’s not that massive a stretch—Sea of Thieves is a pirate recreation, and Monkey Island is unquestionably the best and most influential pirate recreation of all—this was imagined to be a Pirates of the Caribbean joint.

I assume Disney proudly owning Lucasfilm signifies that if you happen to’ve bought one pirate property to place in a crossover occasion, it’s possible you’ll as nicely sneak the opposite one in there too.

In the event you can’t watch the video for the time being, it really ties into the plot of the sequence. The wreck is that of Captain Kate Capsize, a personality from Monkey Island 2 who owned a glass-bottomed boat, who the participant frames and has imprisoned. This wreck suggests she…didn’t take kindly to that, has bought a brand new boat is attempting to trace down Guybrush and search her revenge, an journey that hasn’t precisely gone to plan seeing as she’s ended up within the Sea of Thieves.
