Explore, fight and live the pirate life together in this uniquely fresh and fun multiplayer game. Choose your voyage and decide how you’ll approach adventures in a world where every sail on the horizon is another crew of players with unknown intent.
Sea of Thieves also supports cross-play across the Xbox One family of devices and Windows 10 PCs so that everyone can play regardless of their preferred platform.
Rare felt it would be more beneficial to not follow tradition with releasing just “min,” “recommended,” and “ultra” specs, and instead better detail the expected experience that each spec will offer. Sea of Thieves will also work for those with computers below the official minimum-spec. The game is perfectly playable at 540p, and one of the advantages of Xbox Play Anywhere is that if players own an Xbox One and a low-spec laptop, they can still take full advantage of it.
