"Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 Unveil Exciting Crossover"

A fascinating crossover is happening between a Sony property and a Microsoft game, as Sea of Thieves now features new cosmetics inspired by Destiny 2, bringing the battle against the Darkness to the high seas.

The Lightbearer cosmetics set introduces a variety of items including new flags, ship cosmetics, and a costume set. The trailer for this new collection showcases numerous Destiny references, from the Drifter's outfit to a ghost hanging off the front of a ship. Players can find a wealth of options at the Pirate Emporium to deck out their ships and sailors with these Destiny-themed cosmetics.

Sea of Thieves expanded to PlayStation last year, marking one of several Microsoft titles that have made their way to Sony's console. Destiny, which has been available on Xbox, stayed on the platform even after Bungie's acquisition by Sony. While this crossover might blur the lines between consoles, it's an exciting collaboration, especially with the Drifter's outfit fitting seamlessly into the world of Sea of Thieves.

Season 15 of Sea of Thieves recently launched, bringing new encounters, voyages, and additional content to the enduring piracy experience. Rare's game has successfully maintained its popularity over time, even achieving top spots on EU sales charts upon its PlayStation 5 release.

Meanwhile, Destiny 2 has released Heresy and is progressing beyond its major narrative event, The Final Shape. The space-faring shooter has also engaged in other crossovers, notably with Star Wars.

Both games have navigated the challenging landscape of live-service game development successfully, making this Sea of Thieves crossover particularly noteworthy. The Destiny-themed cosmetics are now available in Sea of Thieves, though it's unclear if Destiny 2 will receive any Sea of Thieves content in return. In my view, adding a massive pirate ship in space would be a thrilling addition. Just a thought.
