Sea of Thieves’ numbers for users and sales are always a good case study. The Rare title debuted on Steam with nearly 67,000 players enjoying the pirate seas at the same time. In July, the game had sold a million copies on the Valve platform, and the numbers stayed up for a long time before stabilizing with an average of around 29,000 players, which is not at all discouraging.
Steam’s winter sales seem to have given the title a good boost, since according to the site SteamDB, in December we can already see that the number of simultaneous players in Sea of Thieves, which reached 45,000 and continues to rise.
Sea of Thieves continues on the crest of the wave
We had already discussed the records of players on Steam during this season of parties and pandemic, and it seems that the effect also accompanies the production of Rare that reached the maximum peak of players on January 2 adding 53,347 souls in the servers. A truly incredible amount of virtual corsairs.
If you could not get the title in the Steam sales that ended a few hours ago, remember that the game is also available within the Xbox Game Pass along with hundreds of other games for you to enjoy at a really ridiculous price.
