Customers are saying

Customers love the charming and fun gameplay of Sea of Thieves, especially the sailing and impressive water effects. Many find the open world and the ability to play with others to be key strengths, although some wish for more content and improved solo play options. While some players find the game repetitive, others praise its affordability and engaging pirate-themed adventure.

    I returned game. It didn't feel finished. There was not alot to do. Boring. Other players can just wait until you do mission and take all your stuff. Small map. Do different missions on same small islands. Upgrades are expenive ingame. Could have been good. Not worth full priced game.

      Ahoy there,

      We're glad to hear that you're having fun sailing the seven seas in Sea of Thieves! Teamwork with a crew definitely offers the best experience. Sometimes it can be difficult to get your friends on board with a new game, but we do have a few different tools that might help you find your ideal shipmates. You could join a club focused on the game, or use the Looking for Group function to find other players looking for the same experience you are.

      Details on how to get the most out of Xbox Clubs and Looking For Group can be found at https://support.xbox.com/en-US/browse/xbox-one/xbox-live/Clubs%20and%20Looking%20for%20Group

      Hey Donnie,

      We're sorry to hear that you haven't received your DLC code yet. If you pre-ordered through BestBuy.com, sign into your account and check your digital library to see if the code is there. If not, please contact Best Buy support for help. You can reach your digital library here: https://www.bestbuy.com/digitallibrary/listing

    Beautiful game but you need a lot of online friends to play. Definitely not a single player game

      Ahoy there!

      While it's definitely possible to play Sea of Thieves solo, we agree that you'll have the best experience with a group of mateys. You probably have a pretty good crew to set sail with, but there are other options for finding some extra hands in those cases where you would otherwise be going solo. There is, of course, the in-game matchmaking system, but other options would be Xbox Clubs and the Looking for Group feature available on Xbox and in the Xbox App!
