Sea of Thieves is a pirate-themed action-adventure game in a shared multiplayer world. The player may set out as a lone wolf, use the matchmaking to find a crew, or form one with their friends, and then sail out on an adventure filled with exploring, looting, and battling other pirates. Each ship is crewed by a party of players who divvy up the tasks of steering, hoisting sails, and firing the canons.
Sea of Thieves is developed by Rare and published by Microsoft for Xbox One and Windows 10. Not only it is an Xbox Play Anywhere title – meaning that if you own a digital copy you can play it on both platforms – there is also cross-platform multiplayer between console and PC.
