Sea of ​​Thieves can now run at 120 FPS on Xbox Series X

Season One of Sea of ​​Thieves has officially launched and with it comes a new 120Hz Performance mode on Xbox Series X that supports 120 FPS at 1080p. As set forth in the release notes for this great Season One update, it is also noted that some TVs do not support 120Hz and HDR at the same time, and therefore HDR must be disabled from the console settings if players want to sail over the sea at 120 FPS.

Seasons is a new initiative for Sea of ​​Thieves that allows new content to be added to the game every three months. In addition, a combat match system has been implemented that will reward players during each season.

In each season, players will progress to 100 levels of Pirate Renown, and rewards for the player’s pirate character and ship can be unlocked. Furthermore, those who have earned the title Pirate Legend will receive specialized rewards as part of this new progression system.

An optional, premium layer of the Battle Pass – titled ‘Plunder Pass’ – will be available, offering even more unique rewards and exclusive items from the Pirate Emporium.

This 120Hz update is just another improvement for Sea of ​​Thieves following the arrival of the Xbox Series X / S optimizations that arrived in November 2020 and faster charging times and 60 FPS for Xbox Series X / S and 4K for Xbox Series X added.
