Final Sea Of Thieves Beta Sailing Off This Weekend
If you've enjoyed its previous beta sessions, or are merely Sea of Thieves-curious, this is your last weekend to check out the game before it launches in a few weeks. The final beta has set sail, and will be running through the weekend. And even if you've made the voyage before, this last look at the multiplayer pirate game includes a new way to play.
The final beta has started now and is running through 2 a.m. Pacific on Sunday, March 11. Up to four players can work together as a pirate crew, hitting the high seas, tracking down treasure, and battling other sea dogs. This last beta includes a new set of challenges, too. Players can take on new merchant-alliance voyages, where they have to roam the world to track down and deliver livestock. Additionally, skeleton forts are in the beta, which provide even more challenging battles – with the potential of better loot rewards.
Sea of Thieves is coming to Xbox One on March 20. Check out our recent episode of New Gameplay Today below to see how our four-man team fared against the sea (and ourselves).

For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
