Over 300,000 Players (or Pirates) Set Sail in Sea of Thieves Closed Beta

The recent closed beta for the upcoming title Sea of Thieves has conjured up some very interesting statistics.

maybelovehate2294d ago

Wow, that is a really nice turnout for a Closed Beta. Can't wait for March

darthv722294d ago

I really like the cel shaded look and especially the lighting and water effects. It just looks like a fun game to play.

Gazondaily2293d ago

Haha the disagrees. I wonder if the sea in SoT is as salty as some of the haters :D

Jinger2294d ago

Not bad at all for a closed beta. Shows very strong interest.

BlackTar1872294d ago

New games just came out. Who is starving for games. With all these articles about how gamers backlogs are growing and people are still trying to push a narrative that there is nothing to play. 2017 had a bunch of great games I still haven't made it through.

@gangsta

Bwahahaha! That sh*t had me rolling dude!

Jinger2294d ago

Gangsta stole the show.

I have nothing else to say

Kiwi662294d ago

But most of those who took part most likely did so on PC

Professor_K2294d ago

gross, well ok this N4g a gaming website not a fitness website

*cuphead reviews and sells well*

“Lol it’s cause Xbox has no games to choose from, what do you expect”

*PUBG sells 4 million copies*

“Lol it’s cause Xbox has no games to choose from, what do you expect”

*sea of thieves has 300,000 players for closed beta*

“Lol it’s cause Xbox has no games to choose from, what do you expect”

Are we going to do this with every game that comes out?

EatCrow2294d ago

Well that's you. I generally don't starve and if I was I wouldnt lower myself to eating garbage food. Which there is plenty of in the US btw.

That said. Xbox gamers aren't starving.

I enjoyed myself a lot in the beta. Waiting to see what the final game entails. Stoked that it will play (or should play) on my Surface Pro for that on the go action.

goatking2294d ago

That is a lot of disappointed players.

nowitzki20042294d ago (Edited 2294d ago )

No we are not. Closed on Jan 31st

slate912294d ago

You can tell how impactful this game is just by the tweets. Thank goodness n4g is such a small tiny minority lol.

@slate91
agree, number one on twitch for a closed beta is pretty good as well. I have had an absolute blast on the alpha and beta sessions, can't wait for the final release. unfortunately anything xbox related on n4g will get plenty of silly comments and downvotes but the general reaction has been really positive.

Professor_K2294d ago

THATS WHAT I BEEN SAYING

n4g is lapiz colored bubble

This should be a warm welcome to all other Xbox games heading to PlayStation.

XiNatsuDragnel7d ago

A sign that xbox will become 3rd party in the future since there games sell better on playstation

P_Bomb6d ago

Sea of Thieves is a hit! Sadly Hi Fi Rush looks like it fell off.

VersusDMC6d ago

Love to see Stellar blade selling well. 2nd only to helldivers 2 in the US. Currently going for that platinum.

Where the F is Rebirth?! I wonder if people just don't know it's the sequel to remake. It is too good to be overlooked.

solideagle6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

I have been playing Rebirth for few days now but it feels like a mini game galore than an actual Final Fantasy 7 remake sequel. Too many mini games, I still think they could do whole Final Fantasy 7 in 1 or maximum 2 parts rather trilogy. This is my opinion

VersusDMC6d ago

Well i am not one for asking a developer to censor themselves by asking them to cut stuff out of their game...but you do you.

Remake and Rebirth are GOTY to me and you always have the original for you.

Does it though? I don't know of anybody who has it or plays it on xbox, and I have a lot of friends on xbox. Not slating the game, but never found it very exciting.

Elda13d ago

LOL!! I can't believe anyone owning a PS5 paying $40 or more to play Sea Of Thieves.

darthv7213d ago

give it a spin... it may surprise you.

Elda13d ago

No thanks. I know what interests me & Sea Of Thieves let alone any type of pirate game I have zero interest in.

JackBNimble13d ago

Well I own it on ps5 and I'm enjoying it. I was considering buying an xbox because I was interested in this game... now I don't need another console.
Elda, it's a good thing that your opinion and interest are just that ... yours.
