Sea of Thieves Price: Retail, Deals & Price History

Sea of Thieves is a shared-world pirate game from Rare, played as a crew on one ship or alone. It runs on Xbox, PC and PlayStation, and in 2026 the store listings moved to a set of "2026 Edition" bundles. That change is why searches for the price now return three different numbers.

The three numbers differ by extras. All three include the same base game, and the higher tiers add bonus media and in-game items. This page lays out what each edition costs on each store and what the add-on gamepack costs.

On the Microsoft Store page checked on Oct 14, 2026, the standard edition leads and the two bundles follow. The "+" in the store means the listed number is the starting price.

The listing from Microsoft Store shows the standard edition as the entry point. The Deluxe and Premium editions bundle the base game with extra digital content such as an audiobook and an eBook, according to the Steam listing for the same bundles. Look at the contents list before paying more.

The PC listing uses the same three tiers. Steam shows each edition and the optional Immerse Gamepack.

Steam prices match the Xbox prices here, so there is no obvious saving from picking one store over the other. Other things matter more: whether you play with friends on console or PC, and whether the game is available through a subscription you already pay for. The Microsoft Store page mentions Game Pass, so check your own plan before buying.

• 2026 Edition. The base game and the digital soundtrack.
• 2026 Deluxe Edition. The base game plus bonus digital content, listed on Steam as an audiobook and an eBook.
• 2026 Premium Edition. Everything in the Deluxe edition plus an additional Premium bundle.

If you only want to play, the standard edition gives you the whole game. The upgrades suit people who want the extras or are buying a gift.

The Immerse Gamepack is a separate add-on. It sits on the Steam page next to the editions. Cosmetic and bonus packs in games like this rarely change how the game plays, so buy it only if you want the items.

The price is the same on Xbox and Steam, so pick by how you play. Buy on the platform your friends use, because crews are easier to form when everyone is on the same service. The game is also on PlayStation 5, and its store prices are not covered here, so check the PlayStation Store directly if that is your console.

Think about hardware too. The game is built around ocean views and busy ships, and it runs best on a console or PC that can hold steady frame rates. Check the system requirements on the store page before buying on PC.

Sea of Thieves is online-only in practice, so you also need a stable connection. On console, online play may require a subscription from the console maker, which adds to the real cost of playing.

• Wait for a sale. Both Steam and Xbox run seasonal discounts, though a discount is temporary.
• Check subscription catalogs. Some players already have access through a service they pay for.
• Use store credit. Gift cards bought on sale lower the effective price.

Compare the same edition on both stores before you buy, because a sale can start on one store a day before the other.
