Lately,Sea of Thievesplayers have been hoisting the sails and traveling the high seas. WithA Pirate’s Lifenow out and available, players are tasked with protecting the world ofSea of Thievesfrom the likes of Davy Jones himself. Thankfully, thecrossover withPirates of the Caribbeanalso sees the addition of powerful allies like Calypso, Captain Barbossa, and the fearsome Captain Jack Sparrow.
To say the least,A Pirate’s Lifewas in high demand upon release. BothSea of ThievesandPirates of the Caribbeanshare the same primary inspirations, not to mention a wacky sense of humor. Even before that,Sea of Thieveswas known as a great alternative to the multiplayer shooters and battle-royale games that have recently held dominance. A lot of those games require some form of online connection, and with the influx of interesting updates and its long-running time, some gamers are wonderingifSea of Thievescan be played offline.

Can Sea of Thieves Be Played Offline?
Simply put,Sea of Thievescannot be played offline. It’s a persistent online world, meaning players must maintain a stable internet connection in order to access the game. Even though it’s possible for some pirates to go solo inSea of Thieves, the design of the game means players are connecting to a central, shared server over an internet connection network. In other words, without access to the internet, there’s absolutely no way thatSea of Thievesplayers can set sail across the high seas.
To be fair,Sea of Thieveshas been described as a “shared-world adventure game,” meaning there’s more enjoyment to be had when interacting with other players. That’s not only limited to pillaging ships and finding treasure. One such interaction resulted in a group ofSea of Thievesplayers organizing their own Amazing Race. While the pirate adventure game may have had a rocky start at first, it’s clear thatSea of Thievesmay be worth a second chance.
On the other hand, it might be a little intimidating to venture out on the high seas, as someSea of Thievesplayers may only have gold in mind. Not to mention,the Kraken is a very real danger for newerSea of Thievesplayersto watch out for. Still, once those sea legs are fully acquired, gamers will find thatSea of Thievescan be a very exhilarating pirate experience.
Sea of Thievesis available now on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
