Rare look to be just as excited as we are to see the release of Sea of Thieves, which arrives next month on Xbox One and Windows 10. Throughout the development process, the team behind the game have been keeping us all consistently updated with all things relevant to the upcoming adventure title, with the latest interview coming from executive producer Joe Neate.
Speaking to Xbox: The Official Magazine, Neate revealed that Rare are feeling good about what will be on offer to players at launch, and what players can expect to see post-release as development continues.
In the interview, Neate stated:
We feel good about our launch offering, and that Sea of Thieves offers an experience like no other. We also feel great about how we plan to grow and evolve the game. Launch is just the start, and I’m so excited to begin this journey for real. For now, we remain focused on the launch experience, and we’re committed to ensuring players have a great initial experience, and then we’ll transition into our post-launch roadmap of features.
Neate continued to reiterate what an impact the game’s community has had, and what role they will play in the future:
They [the community] have been a huge part. We knew from the start that we needed to build a community around the game, and to do that we needed to be as open as possible with our development and decision-making.
We’ll do the same way beyond launch, and continue to take feedback from our community on how we are doing in this area. They’re typically the first to tell us if we’re not sharing enough information or rationale behind our decisions, and we love that they keep us honest.
Sea of Thieves is set for release on March 20th on Xbox One and Windows 10.
