Sea of Thieves Sails to PS5 Console
Sea of Thieves is back let’s go see how things have changed. Has the game resolved the issues that kept players from enjoying it years ago? We are especially glad that the game can now be played on PS5.
As soon as you launch Sea of Thieves on your PS5, Sea of Thieves links your Microsoft account. This was once a wild thing for a PlayStation console. It was easy to do. It warns you you can only do it once, but you may have to re-do it if you relaunch the game.
Once that’s figured out, you will enjoy the same Sea of Thieves you played years ago. Yeah, Sea of Thieves on PS5 is cross-platform and cross-play. Yes, you can play with friends on any platform, and all progress will be carried over.
While playing on PlayStation, you may notice that Xbox-themed cosmetics are missing. You can’t sail the Sea of Thieves with an Xbox-themed ship. nor can you use the Kameo or Saberwulf cosmetics. New players may not have this problem.
In addition, Sea of Thieves still encourages players to spend real money on in-game items – it’s unmissable in-game. You are greeted with a quick commercial every time you log in. There are many sales prompts to purchase cosmetics as well.
There is an easy way to play multiplayer with friends, inviting them using their Microsoft accounts. They can join your crew at any time. You can drop in, drop out, and switch ships at any time, which is a big change since no one needs to leave and launch a new one.
Another thing about Sea of Thieves may impress you too. You’re automatically dropped into a group with the appropriate-sized crew when playing with random people. This is really useful and makes playing with a full crew a lot easier. It’s easy to coordinate, sailing a large boat involves 100% coordination.
