Sea of Thieves<\/strong> is a live-service pirate simulator by Rare that thrives on co-op gameplay. It allows you and your friends to form a crew, sail the high seas, engage in ship battles, and hunt for treasure. Thankfully, Sea of Thieves<\/strong> supports cross-platform play, enabling you to team up with friends regardless of the system they\u2019re using. Here\u2019s a comprehensive guide to the game\u2019s cross-platform support.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Is Sea of Thieves Cross-Platform?<\/h3>\n

Yes, Sea of Thieves supports cross-platform play<\/strong> across PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X\/S, and PlayStation 5. This includes both the Windows 10 and Steam versions on PC. Essentially, if you can play Sea of Thieves<\/strong> on your platform, crossplay is supported.<\/p>\n

How to Use Sea of Thieves Crossplay<\/h3>\n

Crossplay in Sea of Thieves<\/strong> is enabled by default. To play with friends across different platforms, follow these steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Select Adventure<\/strong> from the main menu.<\/li>\n
  2. Choose the ship you want to sail.<\/li>\n
  3. Decide if you want an open or closed crew.<\/li>\n
  4. Invite your friends:\n
      \n
    • On PC, press 1<\/strong> to bring up your friends list.<\/li>\n
    • On Xbox, press X<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
    • On PlayStation, press Triangle<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      That\u2019s all you need to do to set up crossplay. If you opt for an open lobby, players from any platform can join your crew.<\/p>\n

      Disabling Crossplay<\/h4>\n

      If you prefer to play only with others on the same platform, you can disable crossplay:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. On the ship selection screen, hit the Y<\/strong> button (Xbox).<\/li>\n
      2. Scroll down and set your matchmaking preferences to disable crossplay.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Note: The option to disable crossplay is available only on Xbox, not on PC. This setting is a preference, not a guarantee. If there aren\u2019t enough players on your platform, you might still be matched with players from other platforms.<\/p>\n

        Cross-Save and Cross-Progression<\/h3>\n

        Sea of Thieves<\/strong> supports cross-save and cross-progression across PC, PS5, and Xbox consoles, including the Steam version. Since Sea of Thieves<\/strong> requires a Microsoft account, all your progress is tied to that account. To continue your adventure from any platform:<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Log in with your Microsoft account.<\/li>\n
        2. Your game progress will be synced, allowing you to pick up where you left off.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          By enabling crossplay and cross-progression, Sea of Thieves<\/strong> ensures that you and your friends can enjoy the pirate adventure together, regardless of the gaming platform you use.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
