Rare has pulled the curtain back on Sea of Thieves' plans for 2022, which could add up to making this year the biggest yet for the developer's popular open world pirate game. Rare's plans for Sea of Thieves in 2022 includes the introduction of new story content through Adventures, the addition of raids through Sea Forts, and new seasonal items added to the game every few months.
There's a lot coming to Sea of Thieves in Seasons 6, 7, 8, and 9, but while there's a lot for fans to look forward to this year, it should be noted that some content is getting removed as well. Alongside revealing the Sea of Thieves 2022 roadmap, Rare also confirmed the bad news that the PvP Arena is going to close down. Rare didn't provide a specific date for the Arena shutdown, but did say that it would be removed at some point during Season 6.

Sea of Thieves Season 6 will kick off in March 2022, though a specific date for that hasn't been revealed either at the time of this writing. Regardless, Sea of Thieves fans know that the Arena will likely be getting removed at some point in March 2022, unless Rare decides to remove it a littler in the season, and so players only have a couple of months to get their fill of the game mode.
When the Sea of Thieves Arena is removed, it means that there will be certain achievements in the game that are potentially lost forever. Rare has said that it is investigating ways that these achievements may be unlocked after Arena is gone, but hasn't provided specifics. With this in mind, Sea of Thieves enthusiasts should prepare themselves for the possibility that they may very well be locked out of unlocking some of the achievements in the game
