Sea of Thieves supports cross-platform play between Xbox and PC
“One of the things we’re very aware of is the need for the balancing to be right,” a post on the game’s official site reads. “After running some recent tests, we found that PC players were 4.5% more efficient at killing skeletons than Xbox players, and this feels close enough that it’s something we’ll continue to monitor.
“However, PvP between platforms, or more importantly device input, is the big focus point for us as a Design team, and already we’ve been working closely with the Game Experience team to change the way the guns work to be better balanced for cross play. We’ve put in a bunch of telemetry around this, and with the change to guns it’s made them feel tonally so much more fitting, as previously they felt more like laser weapons than ancient plundered-and-pillaged gunpowder-driven blunderbusses.”

Great to see the world of cross-play opening more and more, Nothing's better than being able to play with friends on other platforms! Never actually played this game myself though

Pretty cool hear about this at the Gamescon Livestream there shouldn't really be an advantage anymore as Xbox can use Keyboard and mouse for games like that now.
