VIDEO All new Sea of Thieves gameplay- YAR!

Rare has been making games for a very long time, with classics like Donkey Kong Country, GoldenEye, Perfect Dark and Viva Pinata stretching back more than 30 years.

So any time the English company gets to work on a new title it's time to sit up and take notice, and when it's something as groundbreaking and fun as Sea of Thieves it deserves even more attention.

The game is basically a kids dream come true- you and some friends head out into a gorgeously rendered pirate world and get to do whatever you like. That includes drinking grog, fighting and trying to figure out how to sail a ship without tipping everyone into the water.
