The arrival of Xbox games on other platforms will be a debate that will have its detractors and those who also see an opportunity to improve some games. This is the case of multiplayer games, where Sea of Thieves is the best-selling and the most abandoned in equal parts. Its arrival has had a great impact, given that it is one of the highest-rated multiplayer experiences.
But it seems that a community that has been stuck in narrative and adventure games for years has lost the taste for multiplayer experiences other than traditional popular shooters. And although it has been recorded that Sea of Thieves continues to be the most downloaded game in America and Europe, it has also been quantified that 58% of players have abandoned the experience in less than a month.
Sea of Thieves is the best-selling and most abandoned, since more than half would have left the game in a month
In the end, multiplayer games can suffer from this circumstance and Sea of Thieves has been dealing with this situation for many years. Its arrival on Xbox first, then on PC, has had the same effect, until a player base is consolidated that, generally, is not as high as many of us might want. However, now that Sea of Thieves has arrived on Playstation 5 and has many players, thanks to cross-play it will be easier to find a rewarding experience.
Likewise, much of engagement depends on the arrival of new content. And thanks to Rare, Sea of Thieves, which arrived in 2018, has not given the feeling of being abandoned in any way and is supported by more than 40 million users who have been there. But on both Xbox and PC, the numbers of active users have been like sailing through a great storm, because that number of users is the accumulated number of 6 years, not remaining one of the most played games for too long.
It may be on Steam where we have the largest fanbase, which maintains a certain stability and consistency, around the peaks of 20,000 daily simultaneous players. It is obvious that this is not the best news, since receiving a game that has been evolving for years to introduce content does not face the same problems that Xbox users had at its launch, not even Steam users some time later.
There could be other reasons, knowing that right now there are no new proposals in the catalog that directly compete with Rare's game. Sea of Thieves is the best-selling and most abandoned within its new journey on Playstation 5, and it will have to deal with a community not very given to this type of games, which may be threatened by the arrival of titles like Valorant or Call of Duty :Black Ops 6.
