The PS5 release of Sea of Thieves is right around the corner, and Rare has been busy cooking up a variety of special editions for players to pre-order. With that in mind, we're also getting more options on Xbox and PC!
As of today, you can buy the Deluxe and Premium Editions of Sea of Thieves, both of which include a whole bunch of extra in-game goodies. The Deluxe retails at £49.99 / $49.99 and the Premium at £59.99 / $59.99.
Sea of Thieves: Deluxe Edition: "In addition to a wealth of bonus content – Ocean Crawler Cutlass, Pistol, Shovel, Hat, Jacket, Dress, Trousers, Hook and 10,000 gold – this edition of the game comes with a further Deluxe Bundle containing the Collector's Thunderous Fury Figurehead, Collector's Thunderous Fury Sails and Shrouded Ghost Hunter Blunderbuss."
Sea of Thieves: Premium Edition: In addition to a wealth of bonus content from the revised game and 2024 Deluxe Edition, this edition of the game comes with a further Premium Bundle containing the Collector’s Dark Warsmith Figurehead and Sails, the Dark Warsmith Hull, Flag, Wheel, Capstan, Cannons and Cannon Flare, as well as the Dark Warsmith Costume and the menacing Diabolical Dog pet.
Of course, the big bonus on Xbox and PC is that you get access to Sea of Thieves with Xbox Game Pass, and that version has been updated as well - it's now the "2024 Edition" and includes a few bonuses of its own:
Sea of Thieves: 2024 Edition (Game Pass): "Additional digital bonuses include access to the Sea of Thieves Original Soundtrack – 2024 Edition, the Sea of Thieves: Athena's Fortune audiobook and The Rough Guide to Sea of Thieves eBook."
However you choose to play, there are clearly a lot of great options here for Sea of Thieves fans, and the game is about to get a lot more populated in the near future thanks to the addition of crossplay between all platforms.
It seems PlayStation owners are very excited for Sea of Thieves as well, as it's recently been the best-selling pre-order on the platform ahead of the likes of Dragon's Dogma 2 and even Sony's own first-party titles. Microsoft will be pleased!
Will you be picking any of these up, or just playing via Game Pass? Tell us in the comments below.

So due to the PS5 version the base version is going up from £34.99 to £39.99. So it's no longer cheaper on Xbox either 😂😂.
@cragis0001 But it has gone on sale and will continue to go on sale for cheaper than it will on PS
@GhanaViking you'd hope it would go on sale as its a 6 year old game. But I'm not sure I agree. As if there pushing the base game price up on Xbox to match the PS5 version. I could see them doing the same with sale prices also. So 60% sale prices could be a thing of the past till it's been on PS5 for at least over a year.
Really not a fan of these “year editions” that rename the base game.
@ParsnipHero Yea....sadly gonna get worse and worse as GaaS becomes more common.
Release date: 2014( ewww skip)
Release date 2014, 2024 Edition(YAAAAAS)
Especially on Xbox adds to all the kerfuffle with the store where each version of a game, DLC, premium currencies, etc, still have their own entry instead of it all being under one game listing.
If I type say "Forza Motorsport" literally the only thing that should come up are game entries with the name. After selecting an entry, AND ONLY then, should you be brought to a page that shows different editions, DLCs, etc.
@InterceptorAlpha DLC editions are a problem. At least they have compare versions but it is a nightmare like you say and compare versions doesn’t always help with that.
My biggest gripe is they rename the base game. Seasonal game icons are one thing but this is next level ridiculous.
I play it on gamepass but its getting dull, If some perks/abilities or whatever gets added to this game it would be excellent because it gets boring fast grinding it out for gold and what not to get cosmetics for either the character or ship that gets barely looked at through a session, leveling up the emissaries are great though but its linked to same thing in a fashion.
Wtf with exclusive ps5 versions?
Just give me a functional offline Safer Seas mode and I might forgive this and inflating my file size on Series S from 33g to 103g.
