Critic Reviews​

Push Square - 90/100

Sea of Thieves is a blast when playing with friends. With its focus on cosmetic customisation, we slipped into the pirate’s life with ease – even after six years of updates and seasonal changes. Its natural and immersive approach to navigation makes it a seafaring sandbox well worth visiting, and a focus on cosmetics over high-tier loot make it a game you can play at your own pace. It’s a delight to steadily come to grips with the mechanics of the game too, whether that be how to outmanoeuvre enemy ships or sell your loot with quickened efficiency. It might not have the same level of grind that a lot of players look for in a live service game, but there’s endless pirate fun to be had here, and we’re glad that PlayStation players finally have the opportunity to join in on the swashbuckling chaos.

Hobby consolas - 88/100

Not all treasures are made of gold and silver. Sea of Thieves lands on PlayStation 5, once again proving that this cooperative pirate adventure is the experience that many seek, but few find. It is not a perfect game, but its world and possibilities offer a journey that is as original as it is fun.

But Why Too? - 80/100

Sea of Thieves is a great game that offers a lot. Between the PvE elements, PvP chaos, story missions, added content, and the upcoming Season 12, there’s a ton to engage with. Playing solo may be a mixed experience, but when it clicked, there was so much to enjoy with your time on the sea. Hitting the high seas with a crew is a genuine blast, leading to absolute chaos in no time flat.

Vandal - 80/100

We will discover little about Sea of Thieves at this point, but it is an excellent adventure to enjoy with friends and in certain aspects, it is one of a kind. Of course, it requires a specific profile of a player interested in enjoying the trip, with long-term dedication, interest in socializing or discovering the secrets of their islands. It can be played solo to some extent, yes, but that's not where it shines...It is that type of game that probably will not displace those more media releases that arrive every month, but if you fall into its networks, you will return to sail its seas again and again.

It is a great game in community play.
Not so much alone.

But is really something else from the last generation.... maybe one of the few games Rare did right in the last two decades.
