# Insider Patch Notes 2.9.1.3

Insider Update 2.9.1.3 is now live. A Galleon has sailed into port with a shipment of goodies for the Pirate Emporium! Festive seafarers can preview December’s stock before it arrives in the live version of the game, and Trading Company shops have received some renovations too!

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