Pirates, but cooperative, it's the new sea of ​​thieves

After a slow and gentle navigation in the ocean, a member of Our galleon's crew sees an enemy ship in the distance. Spyglbad in hand, the captain gives order to all the crew to occupy his fighting positions. The first shots leave the ship under severe conditions. Good luck to us The boarding is imminent

This story is part of Sea of ​​Thieves, a multiplayer title developed by Rare and distributed by Microsoft for its next-generation console, the Xbox One, as well as under Windows 10.

Stick Leg, eye patch

Popular multiplayer games offer experiences in different virtual worlds. The outer space, a post-apocalyptic world produces zombies, castles and medieval environments and, of course, fantastic worlds with different arguments. Rare offers in Sea of ​​Thieves a world open to discover and explore at will surrounded by galleons of war and pirates.

How could it be otherwise, the first thing to do when we start the game is to watch our hacker. Will it be plump, thin, tall, short, with a patch or a wooden leg? A question of taste. Then we will select the game style: boat for four crew members or embark on a solo trip. The first option will add friends or players online, while by choosing the only option we can decide in a unipersonal way what we want to do.

As for the objectives, we can loot, browse treasure and discover lands, among other options. Not very edifying, but that's how video games are. For communication with the crew (if we play together), we can use the microphone or use the cat. Communication is essential to establish separate agreements and roles in the ship.

Of course, the setbacks are on the agenda: not only do we have to deal with other pirates, but with bad weather.

We fill missions, we can improve our pirate and acquire accessories.

technicalities

Sea of ​​Thieves uses the Unreal engine, so the graphics are up to the times. The best is the movement of the waves and the effect of water and storms. On the other hand, the characters have a caricatural appearance, which gives it a more innocent look that fits very well into the proposal.

The title awaits the release of two packages with additional content: Cursed Sails (in July) and Forsaken Shores (in September), which will expand the world of Sea of ​​Thieves.The game is now available for Xbox One and Windows 10 for $ 1799, or free with the Game Pbad subscription ($ 139 per month) .
