Former Xbox console exclusive pirate action game Sea of Thieves becomes the leader in pre-orders for PS5

Microsoft has started releasing its games on competitors' consoles. For example, Pentiment has already been released on Japanese consoles, Hi-Fi Rush and Grounded will be available within a month, and the last of the four announced games to appear on PlayStation will be Sea of Thieves.

As it turned out, it is the popular pirate co-operative action game that is of the greatest interest among PS5 users.

Here's What We Know

According to the PlayStation Network database, gamers from the United States are the most active in pre-ordering Sea of Thieves, and by this indicator, the game from Rare is ahead of such anticipated projects as Dragon's Dogma 2, Rise of the Ronin, and the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion for Elden Ring.

Most likely, a similar situation is observed in other regions.

We would like to remind you that Sea of Thieves developers will provide full support for cross-play, so that Xbox and PlayStation users will be able to go on pirate adventures together for the first time or, conversely, to confront each other.

Sea of Thieves was released in 2018 on PC and Xbox and has since attracted around 35 million people.
