Ahoy me hearties!
Get ready to set sail once again – our second post-release update is live now!
Following on from the roadmap which we shared earlier this month today’s update focuses on improving the functionality of the captain’s inn, polishing the visuals of every captain’s portrait, adding more audio options, and addressing some of the balancing, QoL issues and bugs reported by the community.
Captain’s Inn Improvements
This new update will give you much more flexibility when choosing which captain is worthy of joining your fleet. When visiting the captain’s inn, you will now be able to re-roll the current offer of captains, with a 2-minute cooldown between each selection.
New Captain’s Portraits
To more closely match the painted art style that is used elsewhere in the game, we have reworked every captain’s portrait. Here’s a little sneak peek of the new painted versions that you can expect to see!
See the full list of patch notes below:
