Today Rare sent a mailing blast to those who took part to the Sea of Thieves Closed Beta, and it includes some numbers and statistics.
Despite some issues that caused the developer to extend the beta by two days, it got 332,052 players sailing around its archipelago, and those players spent over two million hours at sea cumulatively.
Since testers were allowed to stream for the first time, over 25,000 of them broadcasted their gameplay or created video, with a average of 140,240 cumulative viewers and about 14.5 million cumulative hours watched. The game reached first place in live viewers on both Twitch and Mixer.
You can check out the handy infographic with all the data below. If you want to learn more about the game, you can check out a trailer for the beta itself, another from the day before, celebrating the inclusion in the game in the Xbox Game Pass, the latest gameplay from the developers, another recent trailer, one more trailer from last month, more gameplay footage recorded by the developers, and one last gameplay trailer.

Sea of Thieves will release for Xbox One and PC on March 20th, 2018.
