Sea of Thieves Season 9 Release Date
At the time of writing it's impossible to give a concrete day that Sea of Thieves Season 9 starts. That's because we're still months out from the season launching. However, thanks to the Sea of Thieves 2022 Roadmap we do know that Season 9 is "launching December 2022".
In the past, we've normally seen seasons last somewhere between 10 and 13 weeks. Just to help, here's a quick look at when the game's past seasons have normally started and finished:
Season | Start Date | End Date | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
Season 1 | January 28, 2021 | April 15, 2021 | 11 Weeks |
Season 2 | April 15, 2021 | June 22, 2021 | 9 Weeks |
Season 3 | June 22, 2021 | September 23, 2021 | 13 Weeks |
Season 4 | September 23, 2021 | December 2, 2021 | 10 Weeks |
Season 5 | December 2, 2021 | March 2022 | NA |
Season 6 | March 2022 | June 2022 | NA |
Season 7 | June 2022 | September 2022 | NA |
Season 8 | September 2022 | December 2022 | NA |
Season 9 | December 2022 | ??? | NA |
With all the info we have at our disposable, we should be able to give a rough estimation of when we can expect to see Sea of Thieves Season 9 start. It's also worth noting that a new Season will typically begin on a Thursday.
Here's when we think Sea of Thieves Season 9 will start and end:
- Sea of Thieves Season 9 start date: December 1, 2022
- Sea of Thieves Season 9 end date: March 2, 2022
For the time being though this is just speculation, and we'll have to wait on an official announcement from the developer closer to the time for confirmation.
Sea of Thieves Season 9 Leaks & Teasers
For now, we're still too far out to realistically say what direction the game's storyline is heading, but who knows we could see some leaks in the future that hint at where we might be by the time Season 9 is released.
For now, though, it's worth noting that the official roadmap also teased "New social options for crews", as a new feature due to arrive in Season 9. For now, though, it's not been explained what this could entail.
We'll be sure to update this page as more Sea of Thieves Season 9 info becomes available in the lead-up to launch.
