The fact that the reapers were shown doing pve stuff while the athena emissaries were looking for a fight is ironically accurate
I have yet to come across an athena emissary. I have come across reapers. I think twice I just ran and if caught, they sank my ship. One time was just raising a flag, level one, and did not have loot on board. I did not put up a fight. One of them asked to kill them, they sunk my ship and killed me again. The second time, I had loot. I dropped a 4 chests of the damned, while running. Then thinking they would let me go, they kept on coming after me. I still had loot on my ship, so I decided to run off the map. I worked 2 hours going back and forth to those ghost forts, only to let a reaper take all the loot, no thank you. Then I came across them again, but they were not under the reaper. I ran out of bounds again. Then woke up on a beach near the ghost fort they went to. I rowed a boat over in that direction, simmed the rest and decided to take their ship, light it on fire and beach them. Killed the guy that kept spawning everytime. Then left.
@@cainabel6356 Of all the stories on the Sea of Thieves, this is one of them.
I feel like it would be more accurate if the Athena players were running and doing pve while reapers were fighting for 10 seconds before running away and then doing pve.
@@cainabel6356 you don't come across us because we're masters of stealth.
@@christianschoff2490 LOL!
The fact this is a nine minute trailer says alone this is the best update in Sea of Thieves history
Putting this update over the year one anniversary update before it even released is kind of risky. Time will tell if it is or maybe isn't
I agree year 1 anniversary was hype but if u think about it now the only things that lasted from it was fishing (kinda), tall tales and open treasure chests
@@AnisDomini and more types of ship damage
TimeWhale That’s true forgot about that
The dice tho...
This is what this game has always needed. Two factions with passion to fight each other and defend each other. Simply based on the colors your ship is flying, not whether your friends.
need 3 factions but 2 is good
fight each other based on colors of skins, yes I like that
Knowing hoe toxic the player base is, i doubt that many inter crew alliances will form even if they are on the same team
@@wile123456 right. The problem is that people aren't doing it for gold or cosmetic incentives, so the whole hourglass thing won't mean much to them. They're just in it for the PvP, so they will fight each other.
That doesn't seem to be what we are getting... You are opting IN to PVP, your ship "dives beneath the waves" aka Instance Transfer ... so you'll essentially be sent to fight some other ship, or they will be sent to fight you, in short order - across servers. This isn't like "Red Team / Blue Team" ... it's PVP for prizes, essentially.
Rare, it's criminal you haven't uploaded the music alone right now. Full props for this entire update - this is going to be a brutal and wonderful season!
All music on Spotify
@@passiondpete1624 Not on their spotify atm. Checked.
Been rewatching this over and over almost solely for the music at this point, I think I might die if they don't release this track. Really hoping it will be the menu music too, that would be sick.
@@capnphoenix Same here. With luck the music will play when you rise from the depths.
@@Eric4bz **laughs in insiders**
Jokes aside.. When the season launches, i'm fairly certain that one or two channels on YTB are going to upload it. Hold on tight, a bit less than 2 days off now. ;)
I think they might have just given the community exactly what it has always wanted, so impressed! Congratulations to the Devs ❤️
So insanely hyped for this! Amazing job as always Rare! Season 8 is going to be the best season yet, hand down!
I agree. So far I have disliked every other season but this one looks awesome.
Honestly, though, this is BIG... I couldn't be happier to be maining this game!!!!
AGREED
can you get both the Skelton and ghost curse and are they permitted
@@Mo-hl5ju They said you could get both :)
Actual, real PVP content for the first time in 2 years! May the Flame burn! And GL HF to you all!
Hype
See ya out here 👀👀
And you as well!
I cant wait to profit from both sides. MERCENARY LIFE
Cring3
they really put everything I've ever wanted in one update
This season needs an update
I’m hoping this helps Solo players like me. PVE should be a little easier if all pvp people are busy
and has it been? I didn't play for a long while
@@denj4syes immensely
This is insane, this is everything a PVP player has wanted
So happy to see that Flameheart vs the Pirate lord is going to finally be something you can actually FIGHT for
@MortslipLeast hateful youtube commenter:
@@TheLuckster haha deleted comment
But 99.9% of PVP players won't participate and will instead go after easy tall tale sinks.
@@catbeans4685 Why on earth would we prefer that?
@@catbeans4685 That makes no sense lol
Go for the fight which is more entertaining because the people will actually fight and you can make money from it and earn rewards
Or fight the ship that won't fight back that only gives you a tall tale item that you can't use
If anything this update will encourage tall tale players to be left alone
A new beginning 😎
It Shall Be. 😎
This is perfect! PvE and PvP players can both be happy with their own playstyle! good job rare!
Oh, PvE is still PvEvP - don't forget or be sad when you find your boat as kindling from a passing bastard
@@dawidscheffler7152 I'll be honest, if players still sink people doing tall tales or something with no loot then they are just too scared to fight other pvpers lol
@@dawidscheffler7152 Yea but all the pvp players will be too busy playing this, while pve players can freely do all the world events on the map.
@@yoshometsuxboxlive Yeah I believe you are still right. As much pvp oriented the content is, there will always be players who just want easy sinks.
@@Jallu555 there is still incentive to swipe loot and sink others for the "greed" of the hour glass but, yeah, it should make it more likely that they will chase one another rather than a non-faction ship - agreed.
After playing in season 8, I can say this has been the best update I’ve ever experienced
It's nice that they include a warning with this update.
Too many people got upset about raising emissaries, when they were introduced; unaware that Reapers can see them at level five, and they their flags had a risk to them.
being able to sail underwater is badass as hell. Full on flying dutchman. Might have to reinstall this game
Flying Dutchman didnt sail underwater. It flew. PotC is very inaccurate to the actual legend
@@BenBerke wait the flying dutchman.....flew.
@@BenBerke I thought the legend was just a ship that went missing that people occasionally saw as a ghost ship or slmthing
@@nicholasstachelrodt1668 why else would it be called the FLYING Dutchman
To fly could be taken to mean go fast! like in LOTR "Fly you fools!" Gandalf didn't expect his party to sprout wings and fly away.
This is literally the best update
There is nothing bad about it
Except skeleton curse not being comparable with your outfit
Thats because it gets its own cosmetics
@@mistressofdreams6031 it has its own outfit because they couldnt get it to work on the normal character
@@mazisaac you make it sound like it has one outfit when there are like six or more sets that can be interhchanged. I honestly think that its better this way
And they have said there are more mix and match coming.
@@twinalphathree9147 Oooooo goody, I want to be a shade ooo or a plant skelly
So happy that factions now mean something outside of gold and progression! You can literally fight for a side now and it shows through your character!
Bro I almost cried of joy and hype the moment you showed the ships go full flying Dutchman with epic music
wow! that's looks awesome!
more batmetal please
Aye and it will only be in game briefly, this FOMO crap made me stop playing all together. Wish I knew the tactics they used before I wasted my cash.
@@TheSkunkyMonk Except they’ve confirmed that this will stay around?
What has there even been fomo on, outside of adventures
@@Stubbiee Probably only because people moaned. Fact remains it sucks having time limited world stuff going specially when it involves story. And the more I miss out on the less likely I am to come back. Mind they've got my money now so... Lol should of walked when they anounced private servers where for hire only and we wouldn't be enjoying the sea's on our todd unless we coughed up.
This has got to be the best season for Sea of Thieves
So it would seem.
So it would seem…
So it would seem.
So it would seem
*Pirates of the Caribbean theme intensifies*
Dude this season seems absolutely amazing for PVP players. Hopefully that will incentivise them to go pvp with each other while us others that want to just finish the tall tales can do that in peace :)
I'm sure pve players will continue to whine endlessly and continue to think that anytime they get sunk they're being griefed :)
Sink all ships is my playstyle and that will never change, sorry.
@@ziggle5000 It's fun sinking helpless ships with no chance of fighting back huh. Just makes one feel more powerful hahaha! 🤣
@@TheBalls2thewalls Nothing feels better than sinking those that offer no challenge doesn't it! It's good for the ego! ARGH! 🤣
@@DarqStalker if they didnt wanna be sunk so bad then why did they have so much loot ;
You guys make my favorite game better with every freaking update. Thank you
@Mortslip What lmao
Truth. This is definitely my favourite game, and every update just gives us more!
I swear this is the most fun ive had with a videogame in several years, its so good
But it’s just so hard to get these curses for pve players like me
@@carlaallison1530then try anyway, the more hg you play the better you’ll get, you’ll eventually get your curse along with the right to no longer just be a PvE player🤝
Down with the ghosts. Hail flameheart. BONE POWER
Incredible. You gave the community not only a new and incredible gameplay loop, but rewards everybody has wanted better then anybody could have imagined and behind prestigious and difficult challenges. Rare your incredible.
I agree but I don’t think people understand the grind for the rewards,you need to get level 100 for the stuff And in the video it showed 42 sunken ships is only level 10.5 so idk if people are willing to grind that much for it
@tatumtrane5744 I get where your coming from, but hopefully it won’t be as hard of a grind as you think. Even if it is that hard, many dedicated players will still be happy.
They're rare.
@@tatumtrane5744 well they actually ended up making it too easy, I got it to 100 after 180 sinks. lightwork compared to lsd/tsd
@@matty956 with or without emissary?
This looks absolutely INCREDIBLE, I cannot wait to jump in on Tuesday!
@Mortslip I'm paid by Microsoft? Damn, why did no one tell me!
Scarab
Damn the new season 7 trailer looking good
It's crazy how much this game grows season to season.
You need to add an accessibility option called “mute Larinna”
I was usually not hyped for these last seasons.
BUT THIS, THIS IS SPECTACULAR
this has to be the most excited ive ever been for a season ever
it has the most content and new things and even with old things being added on
well done SOT!
This season will be insane. Can't wait for it!
I can already hear the amount of players saying: "there's a PvP option for the game why are you attacking us"
This is one of the best updates rare has ever done
Well done rare and thanks for listening to the community and I hope you keep it up
No one asked you.
Finally some PVP content - it's been years! Thanks Rare.
I only started now in october but im in love with this game with my now 167 hours so far, cant wait for when some friends are getting the game (hopefully a sale soon as we are students) and teach them the adventures of the sea and fight ing glorius battles across the sea!
Glory to Flameheart
Hell yes to all of this (except the last line - I'm Team Ramsey since day 1 ☠️)
@@captain_britain they both have their points I gotta say morally and philosophically about what and how you should be as a Pirate so I do really like them both, just finished listening to Athena’s fortune on Spotify so I have a lot more understanding of him and he’s an amazing character.
But Flameheart also have his points, can’t wait till I get my hands on his novel, but also like… skeletons and flames, I like that astetic a lot 😅 so double win for him
@@Barbossa-vg8gx I respect it! I just started reading Heart of Fire myself, and I've lent out Athena's Fortune to 2 of my crew mates. :)
I love the sense of competition that's been building, and the fact that the whole thing is built on top of years' worth of lore. Can't wait for this update!
Good luck out there sailor... And if I see you flying that Flame flag, ye best be ready ☠️
Glad you're enjoying the game! Let's have some fun in season 8!
It is on sale right now on Steam. It‘s 50% off
Even if I hardly have time to play any games theses days, SoT and the team behind it and the work keep me amazed! Well done!!
Season 7 was truly just something to keep us at bay while they were making this. This looks amazing
Dude how does such a simple game keep freaking blowing me away with these updates lol. They hype me up so much and I love it
i’m not even a big PVP player but i cant wait for this season
I've never been that good at PVP, but it looks like I'll need to for this season! Can't wait for the skeleton curse!
you’ll be able to get better at pvp with this update
And the best part of this new faction system to me is... it won't just benefit PvP players, its also going to benefit PvE players like myself as well.
Because not only is it going to gives PvPers a way to properly and reliably find and fight other willing players, but this is also going get A LOT of heat off of PvE players as well, because those who simply don't want to partake in constant PvP can just... avoid flagging for either factions altogether, and by not flagging you are effectively making yourself a far less interesting target.
Overall, even as a purely PvE player, I'm actually excited for this season and I might even partake into PvP every now and then myself since it's more of a "on demand" system, I can just hop in for a bit and hop out when I got my fill.
Man the creativity in these updates is insane
this trailer is a masterpiece... love the music, the screenplay, the cuts... everything
I'm totally a PvE-player, because I can't PVP for the life of me and get quite frustrated when handed my butt to me. But this Update looks amazing and I'm really happy for the PvPers for getting their share of gameplay. And who knows, maybe I'll try PvP again in dedicated sessions, like Phuzzy recommends.
@amphibiancircuits I hear there's skill based matchmaking.
Is this true?
@@cardboardking577 that is correct they mentioned it on the stream
@@damianadams8779 so people who aren't great at pvp will be matched against other bad pvpers? How will skill based matchmaking work is there already some type of skill tracker in sot?
@@artemis5265 not sure they simply mentioned there would be, not sure if its a new system or old
@@artemis5265 It's based in a ladder matchmaking system to match you against other players of a similar skill of yours. When you win a fight you gain points that move you up the ladder. When you lose a fight you lose points and move you down the ladder. You are matched against players that have a similar point value of yours, making it so you fight against crews of an equal skill.
This feels like 2 years of content in one update xD i'd say it's as big as anniversary update
One of the bigger seasons but not on the scale of 2019 anniversary
i always say to other when we are taling about games: "sea of thieves is one of the rare games nowadays that has actual love and soul put into it" you support this great game marvelously, you have my respect in this times of degenerate game developers
THATS HOW YOU MAKE NEW SEASONS! BLIZZARD SHOULD LEARN FROM YOU!
Love the fact that you are finally being REWARDED for choosing to attack or defend ships! 🙏 Fantastic. This will be interesting 🔥
Ok i'm getting this game.
This genuinely looks so cool, and I'm not even a PvPer! Which, honestly, might need to change when the update rolls around, because this seems like a great way to get some combat experience.
I think I may also need to take a stab at sailing for Reapers so I can check out their new lair.
Now my Flying Dutchman can finally submurge and come up like in the movie hehe
I'm not much of a PVPer, but I see this as a opportunity for many people to learn PVP.
LET THE FLAME BURN!!
HAIL FLAMEHEART!
Hail the fire 😈
Uhh... no. Athena forever.
THEY SHAL BURN
All hail flame heart brothers!!!
this is looking like the best season ever
this update is gonna hook me back into playing sea of thieves more often, this looks so hype
Thank you🙏🙏🙏 a pvp update is all we wanted
credit to the devs for trying to keep this game alive
I am so hyped for this update!! Got me and mates coming back to the game! The much needed pvp season is finally here!
This update has increased my love for this game hundredfold
This is amazing by far the best update so far
Holy S***, bad time to be on deployment. This season looks like the best update SOT has ever had. Hope some of these features live on past the season
Amazing, love to see the underwater view like we are a skelly ship or davy jones
I’m definitely buying the plunder pass the new season hands down best and most content packed season we’ve had so far I’m so ready for this
Good job guys. Games nowadays rarely (hehe) excite me anymore, but you manage to reignate that hype and passion to SoT each and every year.
THE BEST UPDATE HANDS DOWN!!! LETS GOOOOOO, bringing me back to the game for sure
"slow clap" yah finally did it rare. Welcome to greatness
finally, a reason to hop back on SOT. Good work Rare.
This season is a masterpiece.
One of the best seasons of Sea of Thieves hands down
Rare is awesome, 6 year old game and it still is getting regular updates and content
1:57 you can be the dutchmen from pirates of the carribeane
My god, Rare you’ve outdone yourself this time. This reminds me of the anniversary update ngl. Can’t wait
I never thought I'd be so excited about PVP... I stand corrected. This looks amazing!
this could be the best season this game has to offer.. im so excited
This is literally going to be the best update to ever have come to Sea of Thieves!
I see we can turn our ship into the Flying Dutchman
Game needs an aquatic wildlife overhaul. Game has such an opportunity
This update is incredible! Great work
this is by far the beast season yet, words cannot describe the exactment I'm feeling!
i can think of a few words that may come close... dizzy? anxiety that is some how happy? ...a, smooth athena steal that went off without a hitch? if any of these were close, let me know!
So this is kind of a spiritiual successor of the Arena
From a non pvp players not sure about this update but definitely willing to dance with the flames of the sea
0:55 Are we just gonna ignore that the reaper's bones are getting their own pirate legends hideout?
This looks OUTSTANDING. I seriously hope that the skeleton/athena curses stay in game after this season!
They will they are unlocked through progression
Season 8 is going to be without a doubt one of the best content updates to come to the Sea of Thieves. I'm looking forward to this fresh breath of salty air!
This will definitely bring some more people back to the game! Looks super exciting and I can't wait to play it!
Redownloading now🫡
You should get a award for best voice over🎉
The tip when leaving the battle area should be: "If ye have at least some dignity left, turn around and face yer opponent! Otherwise the Ferryman himself will take yer ship to a watery grave!".
Love to see a pvp focused update
As someone who hates pvp and avoids it as much as possible and wishes there was a solo mode this season still looks really cool and gives pvp a fresh coat of paint. Love the underwater travel.
Yeah, this update allows players who like PvP to fight other PvPers and hopefully leave you alone
Favorite update ever
The ability to turn into a ghost or a Skelton. And a freaking Davy Jones underwater ship.....
Yes
I was losing my hope for sea of thieves during season 7 and kinda stopped playing overall, but now i am absolutely hyped about this new update! Amazing job Rare!
BEST SOT UPDATE EVER! Can't wait to get that instant PvP!
@Mortslip Wish I got paid lol
THIS IS WHERE THE FUN BEGINS!!
FINALLY A SKELETON CURSE
i bought SOT for 19$ on steam sale and haVe played it for over 1k hours and cant belive they are still pumping top tier content. AS A REAPER MAIN IM PUMPED. PREPARE TO GET HUNTED BOIS
I'll have to make sure to raid a few forts for supplies whenever I log in before flagging myself :P
This looks amazing! Really looking forward to Season 8
