Sea of Stars: How To Get the Map & Explore All Islands

Sea of Stars is an unexpectedly vast game with diverse regions to explore. Unlike many games that obscure the map until players have reached that destination, Sea of Stars lays it all out there as soon as the map is picked up.

However, with several islands populating this piece of paper and a brand-new ship, the thrill of adventure can be a bit daunting. This guide offers a complete rundown of every island on the Sea of Stars map and what adventure awaits there.

Sea of Stars: How to Open the Map

After booting up the game, it instantly becomes evident that there is no minimap in any of the top or bottom corners of the screen. Sea of Stars invites players to uncover its secrets unguided. Yet, a glimmer of hope shines: a complete map can be accessed after the story.

After unlocking the Vespertine ship once the first Dweller has been defeated, players unlock the Map. With the Vespertine, players get a ghost captain companion named Hortence, who’ll gladly tag along in our journey after saving her ship.
