Sea of Thieves’s open beta is Xbox One X enhanced with new content

The last Sea of Thieves beta test before the game debuts March 20 for Xbox One and PC is live, and it has some Xs marking new spots for ya scurvy digital pirates to explore. Unlike the previous closed betas, anyone can download the game client and try out Sea of Thieves. Previously, this was only available to people who preordered.

While the open beta will give a lot of people a chance to experience Sea of Thieves’s cooperative online piracy action for the first time, developer Rare has unlocked some fresh content for everyone to experience as well. Up to this point, players could only get missions from the Gold Hoarders faction, but that is changing.
