In an exciting crossover, a Sony property is making waves in a Microsoft game. Sea of Thieves, the popular pirate-themed adventure from Microsoft, has introduced new cosmetics inspired by the world of Destiny 2, bringing the battle against the Darkness to the high seas. The Lightbearer cosmetics set includes a variety of items such as new flags, ship cosmetics, and a costume set, allowing players to immerse themselves in the Destiny universe while sailing the treacherous waters of Sea of Thieves.
The trailer for this new set showcases numerous nods to Destiny, including the iconic Drifter's outfit and a ghost hanging off the front of a ship. The Pirate Emporium is brimming with options, enabling players to fully deck out their ships and sailors with these unique Destiny-themed cosmetics.
Sea of Thieves made a splash on PlayStation last year, marking one of several Microsoft titles that have crossed over to Sony's console. Meanwhile, Destiny, developed by Bungie, has remained on Xbox even after Bungie's acquisition by Sony. This crossover might blur traditional console boundaries, but it's a delightful blend, especially with the Drifter's outfit fitting seamlessly into the world of Sea of Thieves.
With the launch of Season 15, Sea of Thieves has introduced 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 released Heresy and continues to evolve following the narrative climax in The Final Shape. The space-faring shooter has also engaged in recent crossovers, notably with Star Wars, showcasing its ability to adapt and thrive in the ever-changing landscape of live-service games.
Both Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 have navigated the shifting tides of live-service game production successfully, making this crossover a fitting celebration of their resilience. The Destiny 2-themed cosmetics are now available in Sea of Thieves, though it's uncertain if Destiny 2 will receive any Sea of Thieves content in return. In an imaginative twist, it would be thrilling to see a massive pirate ship sailing through the cosmos in Destiny 2.
