A Sea of Thieves player embarked on a pirate ship and stumbled upon a brother-sister duo in their 70s, who he had an interesting interaction with. Sea of Thieves is an action-packed collaboration between notable developer Rare and Microsoft Studios. Released in March 2018, it allows players to take on the role of a pirate and explore various islands, gather resources, and go on voyages for various trading companies. Players enjoy building and customizing their own characters and taking their story forward in this open-world game.
Sea of Thieves has managed to amass a large community, making it one of the best sailing-themed games. Even though it launched half a decade ago, the game was conceived back in 2014 and took its inspiration from open-world games like Eve Online and DayZ, as well as movies like the Pirates of the Caribbean pentalogy. Building upon the feedback received upon its initial release, Rare came up with various content updates over the years, including interesting collaborations with other games like The Legend of Monkey Island.
With the much-delayed tenth season of Sea of Thieves right around the corner, fans are leveling up their game in the current season, coming up with noteworthy moments that are going viral on social media. Recently, Twitch streamer Radreon posted a video on TikTok, sharing a heartwarming incident with a brother-sister pirate duo in their 70s as he embarked on a pirate ship. The video shows Radreon climbing aboard a ship and hiding as he discovers the couple arguing over what to do next as they chase a ship. Upon talking to them, he finds out that they are siblings. The brother, aged 75, lives in California, whereas the sister, 70 years old, lives in Arizona.
As the video proceeds, he can be seen hiding inside a barrel and eventually getting killed by the siblings, named Peeweestong Gold Bucko and DawnOfCats, so he can respawn in his own boat. In the next few minutes, he swims around for a while and comes back on board, staying out of sight of the pirate duo as they try to figure out where he is. Finally, he performs the Barrel Disguise move and quits the game, showing the Sea of Thieves Monkey Island crossover home screen.
This unusual encounter has already gotten thousands of reactions and shares on TikTok, and fans are terming it one of the most wholesome interactions they have witnessed in an open-world game. Some people also commented how they would love to do the same with their siblings when they turn 70. Seeing as Rare has already planned five years of Sea of Thieves content, it would be wonderful to experience many such endearing moments.
Sea of Thieves is available now on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
