Sea of Thieves Has a Really Cool Easter Egg For Retro Fans
There’s a really cool easter egg for retro fans in Sea of Thieves, but finding it is no easy task.
Spoiler Warning! If you don’t want to be spoiled on this easter egg, we recommend backing out now. Otherwise, please proceed at your own risk!
Specifically, the newest content drop for Rare’s Sea of Thieves, A Pirate’s Life, features a Monkey Island easter egg that’s quite expansive. A Pirate’s Life is the new story campaign in Sea of Thieves and it’s comprised of five Tall Tales that center on Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean.
As a result, there’s easter eggs galore both in reference to the Pirates of the Caribbean films and the famous Disney rides. But it’s not just Disney — this collaboration also gave Rare the chance to show some love to a somewhat forgotten (or at least, it’s not been seen in a very long time) series also owned by Disney by way of Lucasfilm Games: Monkey Island.
The Monkey Island series is a point-and-click adventure series all about pirates: specifically the likes of Guybrush Threepwood. In Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge, Captain Kate Capsize was introduced to the series and the Sea of Thieves easter egg centers on these two characters.
