Description
Sea of Thieves offers the essential pirate experience, from sailing and fighting to exploring and looting – everything you need to live the pirate life and become a legend in your own right. With no set roles, you have complete freedom to approach the world, and other players, however you choose.
Whether you’re voyaging as a group or sailing solo, you’re bound to encounter other crews in this shared world adventure – but will they be friends or foes, and how will you respond?
A Vast Open World
Explore a vast open world filled with unspoiled islands and underwater kingdoms. Take on quests to hunt for lost loot, forge a reputation with the Trading Companies and battle foes from Phantoms and Ocean Crawlers to Megalodons and the mighty Kraken. Try your hand at fishing, make maps to your own buried treasure or choose from hundreds of other optional goals and side-quests!
A Game That’s Always Growing
With each Season bringing in new game features every three months alongside regular in-game Events, Sea of Thieves is a service-based game that’s still growing and evolving. Check back regularly to see what free content has been newly added, and see how far you can climb through each Season’s 100 levels of Renown to earn special rewards.

Community manager protected a predator and even uplifted them to a position where they could more easily access and exploit minors. Situation was being so badly mishandled that official partners are stepping down. Abhorrent situation and a dismal response to it by Rare.

Playing Solo? No Friends? Delete it and get a refund. Only worth playing when you have 4+ friends that can help fend off CoD and Fortnite players trying to steal your loot. Skull and Bones is the only solo friendly pirate game that ive played. Looking forward to Windrose. Its got cute graphics and meth head style characters you can play as.

i drank a lot of beer, tried every instrument i have, vibed to the music i was playing (both in game and behind my screen), and threw up on everything i saw, including my friend’s face. what more do u need? the ocean looks amazing, exploring maps and islands is very fun, treasure hunting is always exciting and every adventure becomes a memorable story. good game.
