# Insider Patch Notes 2.7.1.6

Insider Update 2.7.1.6 is now live. In our last update before our January release, Insiders can still enjoy battling it out on the Sea of Thieves with our Season Eight feature set or if you fancy taking a break and doing a little bit of shopping, why not try out the new Bristling Barnacle cosmetics or Wailing Barnacle Hairstyles at the outpost merchants.

As always, if you encounter any bugs, then please head to the 
[Sea of Thieves support site](https://support.seaofthieves.com/hc/en-gb) and let our Player Support team know.
