Despite the problems at the launch, Sea of Thieves continues to develop actively. Shortly before its third anniversary, the game broke the mark of 20 million players. In honor of this, the developers announced several nice bonuses and events for fans at once.
Information about the new achievement appeared on the official Twitter account of Sea of Thieves. The developers thanked the users and raised a toast to all the pirates who joined their game.

Three years of Sea of Thieves will be celebrated on March 20. For the anniversary, the developers have prepared several activities at once. All users will receive unique sails for ships, and Xbox Game Pass subscribers will be able to count on other special bonuses. Also, until March 21, the game is sold with a 50% discount.
Sea of Thieves is a cooperative action adventure developed by the British studio Rare and published by Microsoft in 2018. On release, the game was scolded for a lack of content and criticized for selling such a raw product at full cost.
However, many even then noted the potential of the project. Over time, the authors of Sea of Thieves have worked on the bugs, regularly releasing updates. In January last year, Rare announced that its game was the most successful IP that Microsoft has launched in this generation.
