Sea of Thieves (XBO/PC/Xbox Series/PS5) [Multiplayer]
Dev: Rare
Publisher: Xbox
Status: At Risk
The layoffs of about 9,000 Xbox employees announced today, as well as Rare's Everwild being cancelled, don't give a lot of hope for Sea of Thieves's future.

Video games deserve to be preserved in both their physical form and functionality. It’s why I fully support the #stopkillinggames movement. If you can sign the petition please do.

As a firm believer of Game Preservation, I encourage everyone who lives in the EU and UK to sign the petition. With our combined efforts, we can make a change and make game companies to #StopKillingGames.

More information can be found here: stopkillinggames.com/faq
This is an image describing the initiative of the StopKillingGames movement, where they aim to have lawmakers introduce a law that prevents Game Companies from killing video games that customers have paid for.

Either you keep what you buy, or you're informed upfront when access to what you buy ends.

There is no in between.

Transcript of text: #StopKillingGames In the 90s and early 2000s, players could keep and play games they bought indefinitely - either offline or on community run servers - even after official support ended. Today, many games require constant online access, and once servers shut down, they become completely unplayable. Stop Killing Games is an initiative aiming to require companies to allow players to play the games they purchased even after official support ends. If you're an EU or UK citizen, sign the petition at www.StopKillingGames.com by July 31st to help protect game preservation. Not in the EU or UK? Spread the word using #StopKillingGames www.StopKillingGames.com Transcript end. The final line, detailing the website, has the word "Killing" in red, and is in front of the Stop Killing Games logo (which is of an old school controller, with the right half crumbling apart). The entire image is against a blue background.
