    After recent games from Rare not being up to par with their older games, Sea Of Thieves does not disappoint!

    Gorgeous looking game and at times feels like something truly special. However, it's short lived with repetitive tasks and absolutely no sense of character progression. This could be great later in its life.

      Ahoy there,

      Thanks for saying that Sea of Thieves is a great multiplayer game! We agree that you'll have the best experience sailing with a crew of your mates instead of going solo.

      If you're having trouble getting into a good group with the in-game matchmaking, you could consider joining an Xbox Club focused on Sea of Thieves or using the Looking for Group feature on Xbox or in the Xbox App!

      Hopefully, these tools can help you enjoy Sea of Thieves even more!

    This game came with such hype from Xbox and rare. Unfortunately it misses the mark. Yes it’s an open world game and yes it has fun moments. However about two hours into this game and you’re doing the same mission over and over I would buy this at a 30 dollar price point but at 60 dollars it fells unfinished and just leaves you wanting your time and money back. There will be people that love this game and swear by it. It’s very much so a make your own fun game. And if you get bored of that then it’s just a place holder until it updates and gets more features.
