The announcement came just this week on the official Sea of Thieves Twitter account. The tweet showcased the complete game, including the packaging, dice, cards, and a large poster of the actual in-game map.

The tabletop game, simply titled Sea of Thieves Roleplaying Game, seeks to blend the Sea of Thieves and tabletop game experiences together. Rare has been working with Mongoose Publishing to bring this to life. You can read a complete list of features and details on the publisher’s website.

Based on the breakdown, the tabletop game is looking to emulate the experience of Sea of Thieves.  Players will be taken on a narrative adventure around the Sea of Thieves as they compete with the other pirates. The gameplay will task players with digging up treasure, killing skeleton captains, and completing voyages.

Included in the complete box set is a book to help would-be Gamemasters create their own adventures for players. However, there are also options for anyone looking to just jump in and play. A “Book of Voyages” offers an entire campaign for players to go on that has them tracking down the legendary Ashen Jewels.
