The best Sea of Thieves Easter eggs and secrets

digitaltrends.com:

Rare’s Sea of Thieves is one of the most consistently beautiful-looking games we’ve ever played, with gorgeous, tropical vistas at every turn. In addition to being generally fun and colorful to look at, the world is littered with little secrets and Easter eggs for eagle-eyed players, and there have been dozens of them added over the years. Many of these were made by the developers in tribute to players and community members for particularly memorable deeds or contributions, while others are more personal and honor those lost too soon. We’ve scoured the sea to record some of our favorites.

There are well over 50 Easter eggs across the seven seas so it would be unreasonable to list them all. If you’re curious about seeing everything, plus getting some rewards for finding specific sets, check out the Sea of Thieves wiki here.

These include the nameplate on a ship in Shipwreck Bay with the name “Blackwyche” engraved on it, which was a 1985 game of the same name. On Snake Island, Plunder Valley, and Thieves’ Haven you can find cave paintings for Battletoads, Bajo Kazooie, and Viva Pinata respectively.
