In an exciting crossover event, a Sony property is making waves in a Microsoft game. Sea of Thieves, the popular pirate-themed adventure game, has introduced new cosmetics inspired by the world of Destiny 2, bringing the epic 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 deck out their ships and sailors with Destiny-themed flair.
The trailer for these new items showcases various nods to Destiny 2, including the Drifter's iconic outfit and a ghost hanging off the front of a ship. The Pirate Emporium is brimming with options for players eager to infuse their Sea of Thieves experience with the essence of Destiny.
Sea of Thieves made a splash on PlayStation last year, joining the ranks of Microsoft properties that have expanded to Sony's console. Meanwhile, Destiny 2 has remained a staple on Xbox, even after Bungie's acquisition by Sony. This crossover blurs traditional console boundaries, yet it's a thrilling blend, especially with the Drifter's outfit seamlessly fitting into the pirate-themed world of Sea of Thieves.
With the launch of Season 15, Sea of Thieves has added new encounters, voyages, and content, keeping the game fresh and engaging. Rare's creation has not only stayed afloat but has also achieved notable success on the PlayStation 5, topping an EU sales chart upon its release on the platform.
On the other side, Destiny 2 recently introduced Heresy and continues to evolve post its significant narrative milestone in The Final Shape. The space-faring shooter has also seen its fair share of crossovers, most notably with Star Wars.
Both Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 have adeptly navigated the dynamic landscape of live-service game production. This crossover is a testament to their enduring appeal and innovation. The Destiny 2-inspired cosmetics are now available in Sea of Thieves, but it's unclear if Destiny 2 will feature any Sea of Thieves content in return. One imaginative suggestion is for Destiny 2 to introduce a colossal pirate ship in space, adding a unique twist to the game's universe.
