And developers Rare feel that the game will look even more beautiful in true 4K on the Xbox One X. Speaking in an interview with Geoff Keighley, the game’s design director Mike Chapman spoke at length about how the game will look running in 4K, citing, more than anything, the game’s water effects.
But to see that in 4K, it’s a beautiful thing- that great water, running at that fidelity.
Chapman, however, also went on to assure fans that even if you’re not playing Sea of Thieves on the Xbox One X, the game is still going to look and play great.
“But you can imagine the beautiful art style, the water, the storm gameplay which was never seen before today, how great that looks in 4K.
