Insider Patch Notes 2.6.1.7
Insider Update 2.6.1.7 is now live. As we head towards our September update, we are now limiting our feature set to those being delivered as part of this upcoming release, and Sea of Bones has therefore been disabled. The team’s next adventure ‘Herald of the Flame’ will however still be available for Insider testing.
As always, if you encounter any bugs, then please head to the
Sea of Thieves support site and let our Player Support team know.
