According to Rare, PC players’ patience might have started to wear a little thin as the studio demanded a few month delay to get the computer version of Sea of Thieves ready for testing. But now that the first PC technical alpha is underway with 1,000 testers, a new era has begun.
“Stability and performance is just so important to us as a studio,” the team said. The devs are focused on getting the default video settings right during the weekend and generating feedback from the players to implement for future tests.
Another project that the team is working on are live campaign events. “Live campaigns are time-limited events that will happen in-game,” the team explained. “They’re meant to spice up the every day gameplay and potentially give you a unique experience and also a unique reward.”
For the record, both the PC and Xbox versions are being run in parity with the same updates and features. You can hear the team talk about the development of the PC build and the live campaigns after the jump.
