&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Having previously resided on Steam, Coffee Stain Publishing and Ghost Ship Games&#039; Deep Rock Galactic is landing exclusively at console launch on the Xbox One, giving you the opportunity to co-operatively shoot your foes in FPS fash&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;At E3, Head of Xbox Phil Spencer proudly declared 2015 as having the strongest lineup in Xbox history. With heavy hitters released such as Forza Motorsport 6 , Halo 5: Guardians , Rise of the Tomb Raider , and more, it&#039;s a claim that&#039;s hard to argue w&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Speaking to IGN , Rare&#039;s executive producer Joe Neate confirmed that the first major post-launch Sea of Thieves update will introduce microtransactions. This update is expected around three months after Sea of Thieves &#039; launch and &amp;quot;anything in this area will not impact power or progression, and you&#039;ll always know what you&#039;re getting - so that means no loot crates,&amp;quot; says Neate. Given the ongoing controversy surrounding pay to win loot boxes and the debate on whether or not loot boxes are gambling , many will be glad to hear that Sea of Thieves won&#039;t feature that mecha&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;I’m not suggesting there be some kind of grind or loot-based collectathon (Rare certainly know how to do collectathons, but perhaps they best steer away from that concept for the time being) that hooks players into getting better/faster/stronger/more resilient, but more importantly, coming back for more. Whether it’s the bare simplicity of island design, the lack of any real management structure aboard your ship or just the general transparency of its world’s engagement, Sea of Thieves feels just like one of those temporary respites prior to some grander investment in another game. Something you muck about with for an hour and nothing more. And for something as crucial as it’s been for someone like myself who seldom indulges in online multiplayer, while Sea of Thieves gets the teamwork principle down…then what?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The developer also revealed a new game coming to Xbox One called Sea of Thieves ; a new shared open-world pirate game. While Rare only provided a small sample of the game during the event, it&#039;s definitely enough to spark excitement in pirate and shared-world game f&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;While the Sea of Thieves trailer was short, it did provide a few interesting details about the upcoming title. Players will explore an open world that includes big and small islands, ships to sail aboard, and people to interact w&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;While this is all speculation, the short preview trailer hints at each of these and more for Sea of Thieves . It also hints at the use of megaservers to bring together dozens of players at once in the vast open worlds. Megaservers have become increasingly popular for large open-world multiplayer games that require massive power to handle the plethora of gamers playing and activities happening at any mom&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This cosmetic content will &amp;quot;either be on a shoulder, like a monkey, or like a cat on the ship&amp;quot; or even potions that change the appearance of the player character (e.g a potion that makes them look very old). Neate also suggests that [https://seaofthievesfans.com/ sea of Thieves gold guide|https://seaofthievesfans.com/] of Thieves players will be able to earn the currency to unlock this content through normal play. For example, players may be able to earn premium currency as a reward for completing high-level quests, or the content could even be found in the game world. Neate also says that anything available via microtransactions will provide &amp;quot;emotional value, not mechanical val&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Neate is not the first developer to offer this explanation, with former Uncharted developer Amy Hennig also saying that loot boxes and microtransactions are a result of rising game development costs . This means that players can likely expect more microtransactions in games going forward, but many will be hoping that they follow Sea of Thieves &#039; lead and only offer cosmetic unlo&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Which Xbox One exclusives are you looking forward to next year? Are you interested in other games not listed here, such as Keiji Inafune&#039;s ReCore ?

Sound off in the comments below and talk with us about all the exciting games coming to Xbox One in 2&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Sea of Thieves looks to be the latest in the plethora of new and upcoming shared-world games. The shared world concept is still fairly new for console gamers, and seems to pull together the best of role playing games and massive multiplayer online games into a full online world that gives players the opportunity to interact with each other, work together, and fight one another in an epic wo&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Undead Labs&#039; open-world zombie survival, State of Decay, was met with a long-awaited sequel State of Decay 2 . A gory gameplay trailer was retrofitted in the announcement, running in 4K in addition to a sprinkle of an additional element where players can expect to make decisions in order to secure the survival of their gr&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Crackdown 3 had been rumored for the Xbox One since the console&#039;s unveiling, and when Microsoft finally released the first footage of the game, fans were not disappointed. After a second entry that was met with lukewarm critical reception, Crackdown 3 is poised to put the young franchise back on track with a focus on co-op, multiplayer, and 100% destructible environmen&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
