Dive headfirst into Sail Forth: Maelstrom

A year ago, we sailed forth into the unknown, all thanks to The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild and Sail Forth; their high seas sailing adventure. Today, we get to do the same again. I’s just this time we find ourselves diving headfirst into a Maelstrom. Skull and Bones, who?

Available right now as the first piece of DLC for Sail Forth is Sail Forth: Maelstrom. It’s available to complement the base game which arrived on Xbox at the start of 2023. And it does so with a teeny tiny £4.19 price tag in tow. 

Set sail in Sail Forth once more

Dive in and you’ll find that Sail Forth: Maelstrom takes what was enjoyed in the base game to build out an expansion. It’s here where the Deep Blue has been overcome with vortexes, new challenges and multiple treasures. Do you have what it takes to brave the high seas once more?

Running the same chill artstyle as previous, if you were a fan of the original game then we’d suspect that Sail Forth: Maelstrom will appeal. We think that the combination of low price point and high content offering will mean this is one that many lap up. If that is your thinking too, head to the Xbox Store and take to the seas again. 

Key Maelstrom features

Need a bit of selling? Well, we can do that too. Just take a look at the plethora of new features and ideas that are available in Sail Forth: Maelstrom…

• Meet the Arcane Order – The Maelstrom is watched over by mysterious guardians who offer strange new rewards to sailors willing to risk charting the depths of the Underworld. In exchange for much-coveted Maelstrom Pearls, the Arcane Order is willing to offer everything from ancient weaponry to custom cosmetics.
• Enter the Maelstrom – The Underworld beneath the Maelstrom is brimming with fresh opportunities and dangerous new nastybads. Navigate treacherous waters as you encounter new, formidable foes and uncover the mysteries that lurk in the depths.
• Beware the Wormkin – The Maelstrom introduces a host of menacing adversaries that will test your sailing prowess and combat skills. The Underworld does not easily tolerate interlopers. Do not linger, or the Wormkin may claim your fleet.
• Expanded Vessel Customization – Express yourself with the brand new ship cosmetic system, adding dozens of decorative items that can be fitted to the vessels in your fleet.
• Sail Forth into the Unknown – Continue your nautical adventure with Maelstrom, where the call of the vortexes beckons you to uncharted waters. Will you return to the light, or be swallowed by the abyss?
