Rare Brings a Bit of Banjo Kazooie to the High Seas

The Sea of Thieves site has been updated with a pair of interesting newsy items. To mark 20 years of Banjo-Kazooie, players can purchase a new ship's figurehead called Bear & Bird for 1998 gold -- see what they did there? In the other interesting piece of news, Rare announced that they've "banned a number of players" who are confirmed as cheaters.

• Bear & Bird Figurehead - Now stocked by the Shipwright to celebrate Banjo-Kazooie's 20th anniversary.
• Rock the Boat - Upon impact, cannonballs now apply a rocking effect to ships.
• PC Exit to Desktop - Players on PC now have the ability to exit to desktop from the front end.
• Shop Clutter - Player Titles no longer remain in the shop when purchased, reducing the amount of clutter in the clothing shops.
