Rare presents the beginning of a new era for the video game, marked by season passes, a new type of reputation and content. Now available.
Sea of Thieves kicks off a new era in its approach as a multiplayer video game since its premiere back in 2018. The successful title of Rare, one of the longest-running works of Xbox Game Studios of the last decade, begins its Season 1 on Xbox Game Pass , Xbox Series X | S, Xbox One, Windows 10 and Steam with many new features, as we saw in this article; among them, the arrival of the expected 120 FPS mode.
This Sea of Thieves Season 1 includes 100 reward tiers totally free; While those looking to go one step further and have exclusive items can get early access to premium rewards, among other aspects, through the Plunder Pass. As we level up, our Renown will grow as well. “Renown is designed to ensure that you do not go away empty handed, as you will constantly receive rewards for playing, rather than depending on collecting loot,” they explain in the statement.

This Season 1 comes with Lost Shipment Voyages, a new way to get in touch with the Merchant Alliance. These are trips with the aim of looking for clues about “precious deliveries that sank with the ship somewhere on the trade routes.” If we recover the Cargo Manifests we will earn rewards and reputation from the Merchant Alliance.
Performance mode: Sea of Thieves at 120 frames per second
And we come to the part that will most interest those who have a monitor or television capable of offering a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The first major update of Sea of Thieves in 2021 incorporates a Performance Mode on Xbox Series X (only on Xbox Series X, not in Xbox Series S, as we read in the official communication) that offers the gameplay in 1080p resolution and 120 FPS.
Therefore, we have two graphic options in Microsoft’s new high-end console: either 4K resolution at 60 FPS (with the next gen optimization patch, which incorporates graphic improvements) or 120 FPS at 1080p resolution, without giving up with this to the next gen patch.
Sea of Thieves has more than 15 million players, a hit available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S consoles, Windows 10 via Steam, and Xbox Game Pass, where it can even be played on mobile devices.
