New Pirates Welcome! Sea of Thieves Expands with PS5 Release

After being an Xbox console exclusive for over 6 years, Rare has announced that their pirate adventure game Sea of Thieves will be launching on PlayStation 5 on April 30th, 2024. This exciting news means that many more players will soon be able to set sail in the vast open world of Sea of Thieves.

The PlayStation 5 release date will coincide with the start of Season 12 in Sea of Thieves. Therefore, PS5 players will join the game at the beginning of an all-new season, right alongside Xbox and PC players. Rare also revealed that the PS5 version can be wishlisted starting February 22nd, 2024, and more details on launch bundles, editions, and Season 12 activities will be shared soon.

Crossplay Integration

Importantly, Sea of Thieves will fully support crossplay across Xbox, PC, and now PlayStation. This means that friends can play together regardless of their platform, and all Sea of Thieves players will interact in the same shared world. Crossplay has been a core part of the game since its launch and will help unify the community even more.

After being restricted to Xbox and PC, for so many years, Sea of Thieves releasing on PlayStation 5 represents a monumental expansion. This will expose the game to many new players for the first time. It’s likely the PlayStation launch will have very positive effects on the longevity and continued success of Sea of Thieves. More players means more pirates sailing the seas, more revenue flowing into future development, and an even brighter future for this constantly evolving pirate world.
