Sea of Thieves Dataminers Uncover What's Next for the Shared World Adventure

Though the Sea of Thieves beta test was hit with rocky seas when it first went live, the extension is now available to give interested players more time out on the open-water. While many were taking in the sights and the social aspect of the upcoming game, others were digging a little deeper to find hidden treasure.

Thanks to one data miner, we've got a closer look at what's on the horizon including new creatures, foots, enemies (hellooooo, Kraken), and more. Ship customization, new maps, and other goodies were also found regarding upcoming content come launch. According to Reddit user 'm4rx':

The general consensus on the beta is that the game is lacking content. With the response being that RARE is holding back parts of the game for release. Lets look at what other content is in the CBT Client?

Spoilers ahead:
