Sea of Thieves, the upcoming pirate game from UK-based studio Rare, is shaping up to be one of 2017’s most interesting Xbox exclusives. The game is expected to be released in Q1 2017 and Rare kicked off a first Technical Alpha play weekend last month.
According to recent post from the official Sea of Thieves Twitter account, the British game studio is currently hiring programmers to work on the game:

There are currently 4 jobs offers on Rare’s website, three of them in the engineering field plus a job posting for an Art Director. If you’re not familiar with Rare, it’s a rather prestigious studio founded in 1985 and based in Twycross in Leicestershire county, UK. The game studio was purchased by Microsoft back in 2002, and released the popular free-to-play fighting game Killer Instinct on the Xbox One in 2013. We invite you to check Rare’s website to get more details about the job offerings.
