A fascinating crossover has emerged between a Sony property and a Microsoft game, as Sea of Thieves introduces new cosmetics inspired by the world of Destiny 2. Players can now bring the battle against the Darkness to the high seas with the Lightbearer cosmetics set. This set includes a variety of items such as new flags, ship cosmetics, and a costume set that will transform your pirate into a Guardian of the deep. The trailer for this exciting collaboration showcases numerous nods to Destiny, from the Drifter's iconic outfit to a Ghost playfully dangling off the bow of a ship. The Pirate Emporium is brimming with options for decking out your ship and sailor in these unique Destiny-inspired cosmetics.
Last year, Sea of Thieves made its debut on PlayStation, marking one of several Microsoft titles to make the jump to Sony's console. Meanwhile, Destiny has maintained its presence on Xbox, even after Bungie's acquisition by Sony. This crossover might blur the lines between consoles, but it's a delightful blend that sees the Drifter's outfit fitting seamlessly into the world of Sea of Thieves.
With the launch of Season 15, Sea of Thieves has introduced a host of new encounters, voyages, and content, keeping the piracy experience fresh and engaging. Rare's game has not only stayed afloat but has also seen significant success on the PlayStation 5, even topping an EU sales chart upon its release on the platform.
On the other hand, Destiny 2 has rolled out the Heresy update and continues to navigate its narrative path following the monumental conclusion in The Final Shape. The space-faring shooter has also engaged in recent crossovers, most notably with Star Wars, showcasing its ability to adapt and thrive in the ever-evolving landscape of live-service games.
Both Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 have successfully navigated the shifting tides of live-service game production, and this crossover is a testament to their enduring appeal. The Destiny 2-inspired cosmetics are now available in Sea of Thieves, though it's yet to be seen if Destiny 2 will reciprocate with any Sea of Thieves content. In an imaginative twist, perhaps a grand pirate ship could sail through the cosmos in Destiny 2. Just a thought to ponder.
