In an exciting crossover between gaming worlds, a Sony property is now making waves in a Microsoft game. Sea of Thieves, the popular pirate-themed adventure from Microsoft, has just received a new set of cosmetics inspired by Bungie's Destiny 2. This unique collaboration brings the epic battle against the Darkness to the high seas, allowing players to deck out their ships and characters with elements from the Destiny universe.
The Lightbearer cosmetics set introduces a variety of Destiny-themed items, including new flags, ship cosmetics, and a comprehensive costume set. The promotional trailer for these items showcases numerous nods to Destiny, from the iconic Drifter's outfit to a ghost playfully dangling from the front of a ship. Fans can explore a plethora of options at the Pirate Emporium to customize their sea-faring experience with these special Destiny cosmetics.
Sea of Thieves made a splash on PlayStation last year, becoming one of the Microsoft titles available on Sony's console. Meanwhile, Destiny, despite its acquisition by Sony, has remained a staple on Xbox. This crossover might blur traditional console boundaries, but it brings a delightful twist to the game, with the Drifter's outfit particularly well-suited to the pirate-themed world of Sea of Thieves.
With the launch of Season 15, Sea of Thieves continues to expand its horizons with new encounters, voyages, and fresh content. The game, developed by Rare, has maintained its buoyancy over the years and even achieved significant success on the PlayStation 5, topping a European sales chart upon its release on the platform.
On the other side, Destiny 2 has rolled out its Heresy update and is navigating its course beyond the narrative climax of The Final Shape. The space-faring shooter has also embraced its own crossovers, notably with Star Wars, showing its adaptability in the dynamic landscape of live-service gaming.
Both Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 have adeptly navigated the evolving tides of live-service game production. This Sea of Thieves crossover is a testament to their enduring appeal and ability to collaborate across different gaming ecosystems. While the Destiny-themed cosmetics are now available in Sea of Thieves, it remains to be seen if Destiny 2 will reciprocate with Sea of Thieves content. Imagine a grand pirate ship sailing through the cosmos – it's an intriguing idea worth considering.
