Sea of Thieves Has Surpassed 1 Million Copies Sold via Steam

3.5

Sea of Thieves is finding a second wind and has already sold 1 million copies via Steam over a month after launching on the platform.

So what has led to Sea of Thieves seeing such a resurgence? Well, for starters, its release on Steam last month has been a major contributing factor. Rare divulged today that Sea of Thieves has already sold over 1 million copies alone via Steam, which is pretty staggering. Furthermore, concurrent player totals for the seafaring sim have since been quite high, showing that an active community over on Steam has since grown around the game.

All in all, Rare and Microsoft have to both be more than pleased with how Sea of Thieves has been doing this year. With the Xbox Series X slated to arrive later this holiday season, and with the game planned to receive some new boosts on the next-gen platform, it looks as though Sea of Thieves could continue to grow even more in the future.

The next major Sea of Thieves update, Ashen Winds is scheduled to launch on July 22. Rare’s holding back most of the details until the update actually launches, but you can get a quick preview in the developer update video below.
