As PlayStation 5 owners get ready to set sail on the high seas, the former Xbox exclusive is struggling to support the number of players eager to dip into a life of piracy. Following the shocking announcement that Microsoft was bringing over a handful of games to Sony's console, PS5 players expressed great excitement at being able to play a few games that were previously inaccessible to them. While Xbox fans may have felt hung out to dry by the non-exclusivity pivot, it seems that Sony's community is more than capable of sustaining Rare's live-service game.
Over on X (formerly Twitter), the official account acknowledged that the PlayStation 5 Closed Beta test for the game, which runs until April 15, is experiencing "" which is resulting in prolonged wait times and queues.
Despite thanking players for their patience, the message did not spotlight a potential fix or solution to the problem so it's assumed thatRare is currently working on stabilizing the servers or boosting their capacity. Whether this issue will stick around for ' official PS5 launch on April 30 remains to be seen.
Aside from the teething pains of the servers, many PS5 players have lodged complaints that the Closed Beta event is broken for them. Those who have managed to get into the game have noted severe issues with stuttering and lag alongside "" crashes to the dashboard, forcing players to enter another queue. One of the more common problems cropping up is the Cinnamonbeard error, which is the code used to signify connectivity issues most likely caused by overloaded servers.
Only players who pre-ordered on PlayStation 5 can access the Closed Beta.
Given that the Closed Beta is likely being held as a means to test ' online performance before it formally goes live on PlayStation 5, some issues were to be expected. Having said that, it's also possible that Rare underestimated the community's excitement for the port, explaining why the servers became so full in such a short period. The stress test will possibly result in a significant boost to the server capacity, so hopefully all those pirates struggling to get into their ship will be ready to sail come launch day.
may not have been the mainstream success Microsoft had hoped for but the game has managed to eke out a decent community dedicated to plundering the Seven Seas. Following its admittedly rocky launch in 2018, Rare has released consistently meaningful updates that have added a wealth of content to the game, giving players plenty to do whether they're solo or running around with a crew. The jump toPlayStation 5 is the latest landmark event for the game and given its popularity during the Closed Beta, it's shaping up to be a successful port.

While Xbox Game Pass subscribers are no doubt trying to play some of the bigger releases of April, those wanting to experience an exceptional roguelike that didn't receive the hype that he deserved should keep their eyes peeled for the end of the month. With major Day-One launches like the JRPG and the sleeper early-access hit , April has proven to be an especially successful month for Microsoft as its catalog of offered games grew with some excellent titles. To cap off such a big month, an excellent indie gem is exactly what users need.
While Xbox Game Pass is set to gain a selection of fantastic Day-One releases in the back half of April, subscribers may want to act fast to play the six games leaving the service in the coming weeks. To offset the amount of titles the platform offers, Microsoft always removes a handful of games whenever it brings in a new selection for players to experience. While that might sound like a bad deal, it makes sense given the already massive catalog on offer and users can still pick up the departing games for a discount before they eventually leave.

Xbox Game Pass is already loaded with unique games but possibly the most visually striking is now available and users should definitely have it on their radar. As a means of keeping the Xbox player base satisfied with a constant string of new releases, in lieu of many stellar exclusive titles, Microsoft makes it a point of constantly adding inventing indie games to the ever-growing catalog of downloadable experiences. Some of these are, obviously, better than others but most of the time, they serve as a reminder of why AAA games can become tired.
