You'll soon be able to play Sea Of Thieves with PlayStationeers, and Grounded with PlayPals and Switchers

As expected, Microsoft yesterday confirmed that four of their games are headed to rival consoles: Pentiment to PlayStations 4 & 5 and Nintendo Switch; Hi-Fi Rush to PS5; Grounded to PS4, PS5, and Switch; and Sea Of Thieves to PS5. It's nice to see barriers between systems coming down and all, and it'll likely have consequences of note to serious businessheads, but what relevance does this have for us as a PC gaming website?

Sea Of Thieves, Rare's multiplayer open-world first-person pirater, is headed to PlayStation 5 on the 30th of April and will support cross-play with PC and Xbox. We called it one of the best multiplayer games. Sea Of Thieves is one of those games that I don't play intensely but have enjoyed using as a background game to catch up with remote friends. A lovely few hours of smashing skeletons, sailing the beautiful seas, finding treasure, shooting the breeze, and desperately dodging the dreaded players who actually perform piracy.

I might as well point out the rest while I'm here because hey, maybe you'll have enjoyed them on PC and want to nudge PlayStation and Switch pals into playing them. Excellent historical adventure game Pentiment is hitting PS4, PS5, and Switch today, while smashing rhythm action game Hi-Fi Rush is hitting PlayStation 5 on the 19th of March.

Microsoft starting to bring some (not all) of their Xbox games to other consoles is obviously far bigger news in the world of console gaming. Technically they do
