Sea of Thieves is an action-adventure game about pirates that gives players a unique opportunity to explore vast seas either solo or in groups. While there’s no goal in the game and you’re free to tailor your own journey, you’re encouraged to participate in various activities that reward you with gold that can be later spent on a variety of goods.

Gameplay

The Sea of Thieves game focuses on sailing across the sea and exploring dozens of small islands in search of valuables. You’re a pirate and all you really care about is how to become filthy rich, so you’ll have to hunt for treasures or steal from other players. Fight, build your reputation, and become the king of the seas. Let your name be known in the shared online world – watch your opponents flee in terror like the chickens they are.

Focused on Multiplayer

Sea of Thieves is played exclusively in multiplayer. While playing solo is a possibility, it’s highly recommended to find a group to play with, as cooperation is where the game truly starts to shine. You’ll be playing in the same world as players who form parties so you’re always at risk of being attacked and solo players are usually easy targets – lone wolves are naturally at a disadvantage.

Only when you’re playing together with other players, you’ll be able to efficiently use bigger ships. That’s because most of the tasks on the ship are designed to be performed manually. This means that one player can be responsible for steering, someone else may take care of the cannons, and someone else will be tasked with doing repairs in case of emergency. Splitting responsibilities is what makes the experience fun and causes everyone to feel important, as all the tasks are equally crucial to achieving success.
