One player also reported that he experienced 15 crashes in a single day, highlighting the severity of the issue. While the exact cause remains unknown, many players believe it might be related to a recent update to the game.
If you are one of the affected players, you should report the crashes to Rare, the developer of Sea of Thieves. This will help them identify and address the issue.
