*Back in July 2018, Rare had made a unique figurehead, named the Bear & Bird Figurehead, that was sold for a limited time during that month. Since then, a new and revamped figurehead, along with ship cosmetics for other parts of a ship, were released as part of the Pirate Emporium as part of the Bear & Bird Ship Set, while the original figurehead was renamed to "Bear & Bird Figurehead (Legacy)".
*On the Plunder Valley island, it is possible to find a rock painting of a bear and a red bird on top of it, a reference to the duo. This same pattern was later re-used for the sails used in the Bear & Bird Ship Set.
*In the [https://youtu.be/5t83bztN4lM "Official Sea of Thieves Inn-side Story #26: Content Plans"] update video, it is possible to see the name of [[Treasure Trove Cove]] on the top-left of the road map.
*In the [https://youtu.be/ZsFqgMpL1b8 "Official Sea of Thieves Content Update: Fort of the Damned"] video, the narrator mentions that "We've heard you loud and clear about how much you want a new banjo", while the camera is moving to show the rock painting from Plunder Valley with a player playing on the newly added instrument, a clear reference to the high demand by the fans for a new game in the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' series. Also while holding the banjo instrument, it is possible to use the Pirate Chat message "Guh-Huh!", a reference to Banjo's catchphrase.
