*Apologies for the weird audio 45 minutes in* Ahoy, pirates! The latest Sea of Thieves Hotfix has officially dropped, bringing a fresh wave of adjustments to the chaotic Last Ship Standing mode.

Rare has been closely monitoring the community’s feedback and stepped in to tweak the overall pacing of matches. You can expect a better flow that keeps battles from dragging on indefinitely, alongside a much-appreciated extension for victors to catch their breath and claim their spoils at the end of a fight.

They’ve also squashed a major bug that was leaving some crews stranded before the battle even began. However, the seas aren't entirely smooth just yet—the developers are actively tracking a few lingering performance hiccups behind the scenes. Because of this, a couple of lobby and queue features have been temporarily paused while they iron out the kinks. Time to gather your crew and see how the new waters feel!
