Sea of Thieves, you might have heard, isheading to PlayStation 5 next month.
But how did the pair react when they first learned a PlayStation version was happening?
“I think it’s such a surreal moment we have this opportunity,” Chapman responds.
It’s amazing."
It’s a really good time for Sea of Thieves."
But in our minds, Season 11 very much completes that work.
We’ve expanded the boundaries of the world, now it’s about enriching that new foundational experience.
That’s the theme this year."
As Neate puts it, 2024 is “possibly the most classic Sea of Thieves year yet”.
“I think so,” Chapman replies.
“I think Season 12 is very much a sandbox update.
So I would say yes.”
And despite Rare teasing their eventual return when wespoke last year, that’s now no longer happening.
I think we’re quite good at weaving that."
But I don’t think there are any real true comparisons to be drawn to be honest.
We feel confident we exist in our own space, regardless of any title."
And that’s definitely the message that we want to kind of get across."
Come and join us, come and set sail in our community and you will find your crew."
Before wrapping up, though, I had to ask about other platforms.
If you could put Sea of Thieves on any classic console, what would it be?
I’d live the pirate life!".
Pre-orders, if you’re into that kind of thing, areopen now.
