Sea of Thieves is heading towards the PS5
A few months ago, Xbox was in the news due to the decision to export some of their exclusives to other consoles. While some players hoped to be able to play Starfield or the next Indiana Jones and the Elder Circle on their PlayStation 5, the bosses of Microsoft's gaming branch nevertheless calmed their enthusiasm by explaining that only certain games were affected, and that it was not These weren't the last releases. Among the titles that will finally be able to be played on consoles outside the Xbox ecosystem, we find the excellent Sea of Thieves.
If you like piracy, you've probably noticed that there aren't a lot of games of this style despite the popularity of the genre. Of course, Sea of Thieves is far from being the first game where it is possible to play as a pirate, but it must be admitted that they are rather rare. Now, however, PS5 players will finally be able to enjoy the title developed by Rare and experience a true cooperative experience that is as funny as it is pleasant to live. And if you can't wait any longer and want to be able to enjoy it as soon as possible, Please note that there is a way to access the game several days in advance.
Even though Sea of Thieves has already been available on Xbox and PC for several years now, the arrival of the pirate game on PlayStation 5 is a real event. As such, Rare and Sony offer PS5 players the choice between several versions of Sea of Thieves when purchasing it. So, for example, you can fall for the Standard Edition at €39.99, which includes the game as well as weapons and pets exclusive to the PS5 version. If you prefer to have some extra bonuses, the Deluxe Edition might just convince you. For €49.99, you will be able to access the game and exclusive weapons and pets, but also crabeater cosmetic items, Thundering Rage collectibles, the Shrouded Ghost Hunter's Blunderbuss as well as 10,000 gold coins very quickly in your part. Suffice it to say that this is an excellent way to start a little ahead of the others. But if you really want to get started before everyone else, this is yet another edition that you will have to buy.
In fact, by purchasing the Premium Edition at €59.99, new Sea of Thieves players will be able to access all the content of the Deluxe Edition, and add some other significant bonuses. Among them, we find the Dark Blacksmith set, the Season 12 Plunder Pass, the Evil Hound pet, and above all, 5 days early access. In other words, while most PS5 players will have to wait until April 30 to begin their Sea of Thieves adventure, those who have purchased the Premium Edition will be able to do so from April 25. Unfortunately, there is no other way to be part of this early access. If you really want to play before everyone else, then you know what you have to do.
