Microsoft Xbox’s Sea of Thieves is a huge success on PS5 consoles: Sales top 1 million

Sea of Thieves was first released on Xbox One and PC platforms in March 2018. Before the PS5 release, Rare announced that the game had been played by more than 40 million players. Also, Xbox announced this week that Indiana Jones, developed by MachineGames, is coming to PS5 in early 2025.
This game will be released first on Xbox and PC platforms in December. Phil Spencer, Microsoft’s head of gaming, says the strategy of bringing Xbox games to other consoles makes good business sense.
