The best pirate game of the decade could finally arrive on PlayStation
The best pirate game of the decade might finally come to PlayStation, as reported by several significant insiders in the industry.
In recent years, the concept of exclusivity has been fading away. In previous generations, there was a war of exclusives between consoles, but now, except for Nintendo, these barriers have been diluted. More and more games are being leaked between consoles, with no major differences between them. And it doesn’t seem like that’s going to change in the short term.
Not when everything points to one of Microsoft’s great games seemingly sailing full steam ahead towards PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. Because rumors suggest that Sea of Thieves could arrive on competing consoles sometime this year.
These rumors have foundation. On one hand, Jeff Grubb from Giant Bomb has said that it is possible that it will come to other platforms. According to Axios reporter and former Kotaku editor, Stephen Tolito, he has been informed by a source close to Microsoft that Sea of Thieves would arrive on PlayStation, possibly in early 2024.
This is not trivial. Released for Xbox One and PC in March 2018, the latest figure we have is that the game amassed 30 million players by June 2022. That, and the fact that Microsoft considers it their most successful game of the previous generation, puts it in a truly enviable position.
In addition, it is not the only exclusive that seems to be coming out of the Xbox ecosystem in the future. Hi-Fi Rush is also rumored to be coming soon to Nintendo Switch. And if all this ends up happening, we will continue on the current path of fewer and fewer exclusives, focusing the reasons to have one console or another on different motives than the games themselves.
