Arrr! Xbox and Sea of Thieves Join Forces with the New York Liberty
As the New York Liberty embarks on their journey towards the 2024 WNBA Playoffs, Xbox and Sea of Thieves are making a splash in Brooklyn to infuse the fans with their daring pirate spirit. From spreading fun and pirate antics across the five boroughs to culminating in a celebration at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on International Talk Like a Pirate Day – Thursday, September 19th, the stage is set for the Liberty’s final home game of the regular season. With the Liberty sailing towards the playoffs and the Sea of Thieves crew adding a pirate touch, the excitement is palpable.
Ellie the Elephant, the Liberty’s mascot, will take on the role of “Pirate Queen” for the week, leading the Sea of Thieves pirate crew as they make landfall in New York City. Starting today, they will share their swashbuckling enthusiasm with fans, hiding pirate treasures like VIP tickets for the New York Liberty and Xbox Game Pass subscription token codes around the city from September 16th to 18th. Keep an eye on Ellie’s social media for clues on where to find these treasures!
The adventure continues on September 19th at the Liberty’s Fan Appreciation Game, where Ellie and her pirate crew will host more Xbox giveaways and help fans embrace their inner pirates, just in time for International Talk Like a Pirate Day. The game at Barclays Center will feature a custom Xbox and Sea of Thieves-themed court for that ultimate nautical touch.
The ongoing collaboration between the Liberty and Xbox continues to break new ground, engaging with fans in exciting ways and bridging the gap between the WNBA and gaming communities.
This partnership underscores Xbox’s dedication to women’s sports. Previous collaborations with the Liberty have brought the thrills of Roblox and Starfield to the team’s devoted fanbase, and now, the adventure continues with Sea of Thieves, creating another innovative partnership.
