Nearly a dozen members of the Sea of Thieves Partner Program have resigned following allegations of child sexual abuse against one of the game's designated Boatswains. The claims target creator Bruno, known in-game as Heslashthem, and have prompted accusations that Rare's moderation team tried to suppress discussion. Rare responded by stating it is investigating reports but cannot comment on individual cases.
Content creators including Phuzzy, HitboTC, Ozurian, TotallyFluxxx, NessieDoes, AShinyRayquaza, and Captain Falcore announced their departures from the Partner Program over the past three days. They cited new allegations compiled in an updated document called The Bruno Files, which includes purported screenshots of Bruno soliciting explicit images from an alleged underage player on Discord. Bruno has since deleted online accounts, and the creator's Sea of Thieves account has been banned from the official Discord server.
