Sea Of Thieves: Is It Coming To PS4?
Unfortunately, the answer is no, as there has been no announcement of any plans to put the game on the PlayStation 4. This comes as a surprise to many PS4 players who have been clamoring for a port of the game for years before the PS5 even existed on the market.
The original game did, and still does, run on last generation Xbox hardware, and quite capably, so hardware prowess wouldn’t be the impediment.

Sea Of Thieves: Stream On PS4 With PlayStation Plus
Cloud streaming of PlayStation games has been around for almost a decade now. Formerly known as PlayStation Now, the once standalone service has been folded into PlayStation Plus in the Premium plan package.
While the current policy is for PS5 games to only be streamable to actual PlayStation 5 hardware, thus excluding PS4, that could change with a strong third-party release like Sea of Thieves, which currently holds the #1 spot for pre-orders on PS5.
Whether this could eventually happen is anyone’s guess, but chances are very low, as the PS4 nears the end of its life cycle.
That’s everything we’ve got for you on a speculative release date for Sea of Thieves on PlayStation 4.
