In an exciting crossover event, a Sony property is making waves in a Microsoft game. Sea of Thieves, the popular pirate-themed adventure, has now incorporated new cosmetics inspired by the world of Destiny 2, allowing players to bring the battle against the Darkness to the high seas. The Lightbearer cosmetics set introduces an array of items including new flags, ship cosmetics, and a costume set. The trailer for these new additions features numerous nods to Destiny, showcasing elements like the Drifter's outfit and a ghost hanging from the front of a ship. Players can explore these options at the Pirate Emporium, where a variety of Destiny-themed cosmetics await to enhance both their ship and sailor's appearance.
Sea of Thieves expanded its reach to PlayStation last year, marking one of several Microsoft titles that have made the leap to Sony's console. Meanwhile, Destiny, developed by Bungie which is now under Sony's wing, has remained a staple on Xbox. This crossover might blur traditional console boundaries, but it's a thrilling collaboration, especially with the Drifter's outfit seamlessly blending into the pirate world of Sea of Thieves.
With the launch of Season 15, Sea of Thieves has introduced a range of new encounters, voyages, and content, keeping the piracy experience fresh and engaging. Rare's title has not only maintained its popularity but 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 its Heresy expansion and is navigating its way forward following the narrative climax of The Final Shape. The game has also engaged in its own 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 challenging waters of live-service game development, and their collaboration is a testament to their resilience and creativity. The Destiny 2-themed cosmetics are now available in Sea of Thieves, and while it's uncertain if Destiny 2 will feature any Sea of Thieves content, the idea of a pirate ship sailing through space is certainly an intriguing one to ponder.
