Today at the Xbox press conference, developer Rare introduced Sea of Thieves.

Attendees were shown a lush jungle environment, complete with pirate shanty, as the game’s first-person protagonist explored the area.

An MMO of sorts, the persistent world showed online players exploring together and combining to take on others in ship versus ship combat at sea.

We’ll hopefully hear more about the game at E3.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
