Set your sights on the horizon, because Sea of Thieves is about to make a grand entrance on Battle.net, bringing along a fresh set of sails inspired by Blizzard’s cherished titles like Overwatch 2, Diablo 4, World of Warcraft, and Hearthstone. Players eager to dive into this pirate adventure can pre-order the game in one of three editions ahead of its official launch on May 22.
Since setting sail back in 2018, Sea of Thieves has carved out a reputation as the quintessential pirate experience. With options to embark on solo adventures or join co-op missions in the Safer Seas mode, or to engage in the thrilling PvP battles in the High Seas, the game has kept its community engaged through 15 exciting seasons filled with unique rewards, fresh challenges, and inventive gameplay elements.
On the horizon for Sea of Thieves is a brand-new voyage as it docks at Battle.net on May 22. This launch promises full cross-play compatibility with those enjoying the game on Xbox, PlayStation, or other PC platforms. Players can choose from three versions, with the Standard Edition priced at $40, offering the base game, a 2025 version of the game’s soundtrack, and the Cobalt Kestrel weapons. And as a bonus, it also includes Athena’s Fortune audiobook and The Rough Guide to Sea of Thieves eBook.

For those opting for more booty, the Deluxe Edition is available for $50, offering everything in the Standard Edition plus the Parrot clothing bundle, the Dire Dark Warsmith weapon bundle, 10,000 Gold, and a coveted invitation to the closed beta.
