    The new bundle for this month is the Solid Gold Bundle.

    Available on the Microsoft Store and Steam and it might save you some cash if you're interested in it.

    Want to dazzle in any company? A pirate of true opulence should hoard this Solid Gold Bundle, which contains two premium Collector’s Pets: the Gold Curse Wildcat and Gold Curse Parakeet. These pets have been touched by the same curse known to turn some pirates’ skin golden, transforming them into living treasures admired by all. Buy this bundle and you’ll also get 1000 Ancient Coins to spend on extra items, pets, ship parts or emotes to ensure that you’re always the centre of attention. You’ll also receive a free 25,000 gold bonus to spend at Outpost shops for even more gilded goodness!

    You can't get the bundle above in the Emporium, that's why I posted it, for visibility.

    The prices are set by the platforms. It's cheaper on Steam unless you have Game Pass, in which case it's cheaper on the Microsoft Store.

    If you buy on Steam, it will go to the MS account you have linked at the time.

    @triheadedmonkey I see, that I can afford! I wonder what their version of catnip is, maybe mermaid gems.

    This varies from region to region. Regular price is actually cheaper for me on Microsoft Store vs. Steam (Canada: 21.99 on MS, 23.99 on Steam) without the Game Pass discount.

    If you have the game on both platforms you can game the stores a bit for the best deal. If one is cheaper than the other, you can buy from either store HOWEVER you must log in using that store's game client in order for the item to get credited to your account since this appears to be done at log in and not at time of purchase.

    For example, I bought Ancient Coins on MS Store and played for a couple hours using Steam. The ancient coins did not load into my account even after rebooting the Steam game client. They did load immediately after I launched the MS Store client and were then visible in both MS and Steam versions. If you plan on making purchases from a store, you'll need to have that client installed in order to receive your purchase which might be a pain if you don't have the drive space for multiple installs.

    Yeah, I wasn't 100% on how that all works. I had to uninstall the Steam version as I had issues with it and it kept auto-launching when I accepted invites. Doesn't seem to be working as intended though if it's not going to your linked account at purchase. If you link your accounts in the Game Bar rather than in SoT on Steam is that still the case?

    Also, regarding the regional prices, I wasn't sure how to check the price on Steam in the US. It's very easy to do with the MS Store because it's just a simple URL tweak.

    That I'm not sure about, but it definitely seems to load purchases into your account during the 'check' process after you click 'Start Game' from the main screen.

    There are a few websites out there that will pull this info, like SteamDB - Sea of Thieves

    Or you can install the Augmented Steam extension and get this info injected into the store page: https://es.isthereanydeal.com/
