Rare studio has announced that the upcoming co-op pirate adventure, Sea of Thieves, is set to have another Closed Beta event this weekend. Running from February 16 (Friday) at 10:00 GMT / 11:00 CET, until February 18 (Sunday) at 10:00 GMT / 11:00 CET. The developer is looking to test the work that they’ve done since the last closed beta with some scale tests. This time around the studio is trying to “hit a higher concurrent players numbers”.
Rare will be pushing their servers at certain times during the beta test – just to see how strong the servers are at accommodating the mass players. This may lead to issues during play, with sessions being interrupted, issues using the shops, and possibly not being able to join the game.
