Battletoads has just released for Xbox One and PC, and thanks to Xbox Game Pass many Xbox players can get their hands on it right now. If you’re a Sea of Thieves player, you might want to put some time into this throwback to an earlier Rare series–thanks to an in-game promotion, you can unlock ship parts by doing so.
If you finish Act 1 of Battletoads, now or at any point in the future, you’ll unlock the Battletoads ship set for Sea of Thieves. This allows you to kit out your entire ship, from the masthead to the wheel to the sails, in Battletoads-themed paraphernalia.
You can check it out below. The game’s first Act isn’t too long, although the first speeder bike level might take some persistence.

To celebrate, anyone who finishes Act One of the raucous multi-genre adventure, at any time, will be able to festoon their ship with a family of fighting frogs! Or are they toads? We hear it’s a wart thing. pic.twitter.com/1BRKaglxHE
Although Battletoads is a classic Rare game, this new version was developed by Dlala Studios. It earned a 6/10 in GameSpot’s review, and it’s worth a look if you have Game Pass.
Sea of Thieves recently announced that 15 million players have jumped into its wide open sea since its 2018 launch. This isn’t the first time an Xbox game has crossed over with it–in 2019, a Halo ship set was released.
