...also the Announce Trailer, the Closed Beta Trailer and the BeMorePirate Trailer. If you would like more info regarding the game, see below, but first things first. If anyone would like to play Sea of Thieves with other GAF members, please list your Xbox Live Gamertag here and preferred playing times and if you like, the type of play you are looking for (ie: serious only, becoming legends/leveling, treasure hauls, hunting & killing the Kraken, PvP, straight co-op, exploration (finding hidden coves), goofing off, etc). So please feel free to use this thread to coordinate play-through's with any other members of GAF.

Some questions answered:
1. If you buy Game Pass on Xbox One, will that allow you to play via the PC since this is a "Play Anywhere" title? Answer: "Yes if the title is Xbox Play Anywhere you can play the PC version too if you are a Game Pass member." (thanks Zetty!!)
2. Will the 30 day trial of Game Pass let you live share? It was said my one member, he heard the 14 day one does not allow it. But this is unverified in either case. Answer: ??
