The final Sea of Thieves update of the year is here, and closing out 2020 is another bout of festivities that has new events, valuable voyages, a new customization method for ship cannons holiday-themed cosmetics, Twitch Drops, login rewards, and more.
The 2.0.20 update brings back the Festival of Giving from last year, and that means a new Gilded Voyage is available for each player. These extremely valuable voyages can be taken advantage of through any of the game's trading companies, and though they take a while to complete, the rewards will make up for it.
There will be a bunch of events running throughout the update's cycle too. Plundered Presents tasks pirates with giving away their hard-earned loot to other players, which grants them 5,000 gold per chest every day for up to five treasure chests. Grogmanay comes in as an explosion-focused event that has some rare cosmetic rewards attached to it. Gold & Glory Weekends, Fort Nights, daily challenges, and more are included too, which can be found on the Events tab in-game.
Moreover, anyone who logs into Sea of Thieves during the Festival of Giving update will also receive free Frozen Horizon Tankard as a gift, while Twitch Drops will be available from various partnered Twitch streamers soon.
Rare has also implemented Cannon Flares as a brand new customizable slot, which lets players alter ship cannons' muzzle effect when firing them. Meanwhile, the Pirate Emporium premium shop has been updated with a large amount of cosmetics, including the Frozen Horizon icy ship set, special Cannon Flares, the skeleton Santa-looking Bonechiller costume, Glacial Curse pets, and more.

The Sea of Thieves Festival of Giving update is now available across PC (Windows 10 and Steam) Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S platforms. Steam, Xbox One, and Series S players will find it weighing around 4.5GB, while the rest of the platforms will see a 6.8GB update. Don't forget that Rare is revamping its update process for Sea of Thieves starting in 2021 with a Battle Pass, seasonal content updates, and more.
