Rare Limited\u2019s Sea of Thieves has officially sold over 5 million units as of August 1, 2018.

To date, there are five million “pirates” who already played Sea of Thieves on both XBox and Microsoft Windows PC.<\/span><\/p>\n

The good news came just in time for the launch of the Cursed Sails update, which will introduce a range of new exciting features for the game. The update will include Skeleton Ships that you will encounter in your sail and the new Brigantine three-player ship. It will also introduce the Alliance feature which enables the player to meet with other players in the world and form an alliance with them, sail the seas and go into adventures together. However, that also leaves your crew open for treachery if one of your allies decided to turn their back on you.<\/span><\/p>\n
