Insider Patch Notes 2.9.1.5
Insider Update 2.9.1.5 is now live. As we draw closer to our December update, our Insider builds will become more in-line with features and content that will be released in the live version of the game. Insiders can still venture into Safer Seas and test this feature before it is released to the general public.
As always, if you encounter any bugs, please head to the
Sea of Thieves support site and let our Player Support team know.
