Sea of Thieves looks incredibly fun. In a new gameplay video, the developers of the online pirate game set out to complete one of the new “Voyage” quests… and fail at it.
A “Voyage” quest in Sea of Thieves can unfold in different ways. Some of these missions are very short, while others take you to multiple islands and accordingly take longer. During such a quest, players are supposed to feel like they are experiencing an epic adventure, which is also reflected by the music that changes according to the situation and creates an exciting atmosphere.
From treasure hunting to sea battles
In a new gameplay video, some of the game’s developers embark on such a “Voyage” quest during the technical alpha.
The crew of a ship sets out to dig for treasure and then discovers another ship anchored near an island. Naturally, this leads directly to a sea battle against a breathtaking sunset. The ship takes a lot of damage, and the crew has to patch the leaks during the battle so that the vessel doesn’t sink. Suddenly, there is a boarding attack, and the crew must face the enemy crew on their own deck.
As can be seen in the video, the developers do not fare very well; most of the crew are killed, and the treasures are stolen. It is also shown what happens when a crew member dies. Because this person then finds themselves on a ghost ship.
It looks soooo good!
The video of Sea of Thieves is already a lot of fun to watch and shows how an adventure in the pirate game can unfold and how good it already looks during the alpha. It makes you excited to finally be able to play the online game yourself. But that still takes a while, as Sea of Thieves is set to be released later this year for Windows 10 PCs and Xbox One.
