Sea of Thieves just got a release date

Water surprise!

Near the end of tonight's The Game Awards 2017, Sea of Thieves got another new trailer. But there was something unexpected at the end: a 20th March 2018 release date!

It was a sudden and surprisingly low-key reveal clustered in among other ads and trailers, for a game which has now been shown at three E3s. Still, it's nice to see it finally coming out.

Developed by UK stalwart Rare, the social pirate sandbox is now just over three months away - that's not avast wait.
