This weekend will mark Sea of Thieves’ third anniversary where it launched on Windows 10 and Xbox One. Since its release in March 2018 there have been over 20 million players adventuring the seas.
It’s no question that Xbox Game Pass has played a huge part in the numbers for Sea of Thieves players, but it’s safe to say that many are still enjoying the game in 2021.
To celebrate the 3 year anniversary for Sea of Thieves, players will be able to obtain special in-game items for doing the following:
- Players who log in between March 18 (10:00 UTC) and March 25 (10:00 UTC) will receive this year’s anniversary gift: the Prosperous Captain’s Sails. If you’re an Xbox Game Pass member, you can also receive the Jump for Joy Emote by logging in between March 18 and March 21!
