As detailed in the release notes, the launch of season one brings a new progression system with the Plunder Pass, a battle pass-like system that unlocks cosmetic rewards as you gain experience called Renown through the season. You can obtain the Plunder Pass for $10, and it will last you through the 3-month season. This season lets you build up your rep with a Merchant Alliance by recovering lost cargo. You can also take part in new limited-time events every month.

If you’re looking to dive into an adventure in Sea of Thieves, there are plenty of tasks for you to complete while sailing the seas, also called deeds. For those looking to level up your renown in Season 1, you can do so by completing the various Trials of Adventures. These trials will have you engaging with particular individuals in the game, accept voyages for them, and work with your friends to combat the various Skeletons and Ghosts haunting the sea.
You can find all of these deeds listed in your Pirate’s Log. Every individual task will give you a small amount of renown. You can complete them in any order you like, and these are no longer available when Season 1 ends on April 8.

A massive new content update for Sea of Thieves has arrived, and it features the first season for 2021, kicking off a brand new system in which players can earn plenty of rewards by completing various challenges.
There’s also a new set of voyages available from the Merchant Alliance called Lost Shipment Voyages. These feature lost cargo that sailors need to find somewhere at sea, and other residents on the many islands may know where players need to search. Completing these voyages provides players with new commendations and achievements.

After that, starting on February 4, the Champions of Souls event will begin, where players will work with the Order of Souls alliance to battle against hordes of skeletons and Ghost Ships. Players will have the chance to earn soul fragments during this event by battling Ashen Lords, Skeleton Captains, Ghost Ships, Skeleton Lords, and Captain Flameheart.
