Sea of Thieves' 11th season is right around the corner, and it looks like its arrival next Tuesday, 23rd January, could very well bring the most radical overhaul for the multiplayer pirate adventure since its launch back in 2018. And when I say "dive", I mean it literally; in a hugely surprising move, Rare is introducing the equivalent of fast-travel to Sea of Thieves, cutting out sailing time almost completely. There is some concession here for the new faster style of play, however: players will earn a small amount of reputation whenever a quest is complete without needing to return to a trading company representative - meaning you can dive again immediately or simply log out without totally forfeiting a reward.
