I picked Sea of Theives because it probably annoys somebody.

There is an obvious underdog in this fight.

Yea, ignorant gamers who have no clue how big online multiplayer games are - especially on PC.

eg: PUBG has sold 30 million units with the Xbox version alone selling 4 million - and this version is still in early access.

Will SoT reach this milestone?  Probably not.  But the betas have been a big success and there is no game like it.

I don't think people are doubting the potential of online games.

I think people are more skeptical about how THIS game can perform. Frankly, I'm not even sure what it is or if I wanna play it but I have my eye on it and I can play it on Game Pass.

I'm gonna go with God of War



God Of War. Sea Of Thieves, will most likely not hold up to expectations, imo. MS is always full of promises, but will they actually come through?



Sea of Thieves being made available day one on gamepass means there is no good way to compare them in my opinion



God of War should reach 7-8m.

Sea of thieves will be lucky to do half as well.

I see very little chance for GoW to lose this one...

And Sunset Overdrive came at a time X1 users were thirsty for new exclusives and didn't sell great.

EDIT

 

Made a joke based on old info...since it no longer holds water, God of War 4 by a landslide unless it somehow blows up on PC.  That really is the deciding factor here.

One could make a thread comparing the sales of GoW vs the downloads of SoT on Gamepass and it could still see a GoW win... if people aren't interested in the game them they won't even download... there were plenty free ps+ games that less than 1/3 of the owners dowloaded.

Gamepass makes this easy - God of War easily......



Exclusivity isn't a selling point to Xbox owners.
