A recently uploaded teaser for Season 12 of Sea of Thieves features some of the additional content that the upcoming major update will bring, including new weapons and items. The Unreal Engine 4-powered game, which is published by Microsoft and is part of the Xbox Game Pass subscription service, is set to become available on the PlayStation 5.

Releasing on April 30, Sea of Thieves' Season 12 will deliver a host of fresh pirate-themed content for players of the title developed by Rare. A trailer for the update has just been unveiled, turning the spotlight on some of the next season's most prominent additions.

A brief launch trailer for Season 12 of Sea of Thieves showed off the new Double Barrel Pistol in action. The weapon can unload two shots in quick succession or at the same time, giving users some flexibility when fighting. The Double Barrel Pistol has less range and damage compared to the regular Flintlock Pistol, which is considered to be one of the best weapons in Sea of Thieves.

Aside from weapons, the recent teaser for Sea of Thieves' 12th season also highlighted the Scattershot cannon ammunition and the Bone Caller throwable. The Scattershot ammo breaks apart into four smaller cannonballs, potentially delivering multiple points of damage to ships in one shot at the cost of having far less range. Meanwhile, the Bone Caller summons skeletons that have a limited lifespan to fight for its user. As the Bone Caller can be fired from a cannon, it could prove to be incredibly useful during ship battles in Sea of Thieves, which often makes it to lists of the best games that feature ship combat.

For those interested in spicing up their pirate's wardrobe and style, Season 12 of Sea of Thieves will add new clothing, scars, and tattoos. It will also bring new flags, sails, figureheads, and cannons for ships. Player cosmetics and ship items are considered to be some of the best things for Sea of Thieves players to spend on, as they can make a character and their boat
