In an exciting crossover event, the worlds of Sony and Microsoft collide as Sea of Thieves introduces new cosmetics inspired by Destiny 2. This collaboration brings the battle against the Darkness to the high seas with the Lightbearer cosmetics set. Players can now adorn their ships and characters with a variety of Destiny-themed items, including flags, ship cosmetics, and a unique costume set. The trailer for this new set showcases numerous Destiny references, from the Drifter's iconic outfit to a ghost hanging off the front of a ship. The Pirate Emporium offers a plethora of options for players to fully immerse their ships and sailors in the Destiny aesthetic.
Sea of Thieves made a splash on PlayStation last year, marking one of several Microsoft titles to make the leap to Sony's console. Destiny, on the other hand, has been a staple on Xbox and continued its presence there even after Bungie's acquisition by Sony. This crossover might blur the lines between console ecosystems, but it's a delightful blend, with the Drifter's outfit fitting seamlessly into the pirate-themed world of Sea of Thieves.
With the recent launch of Season 15, Sea of Thieves continues to expand its horizons with new encounters, voyages, and fresh content, keeping the pirate adventure alive and thriving. Rare's game has not only stayed afloat but has also seen significant success on the PlayStation 5, topping an EU sales chart upon its release on the platform.
Meanwhile, Destiny 2 has embarked on its latest chapter with the Heresy expansion, navigating away from its narrative climax in The Final Shape. The game has also embraced cross-promotional events, notably with Star Wars. Both Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 have successfully navigated the dynamic landscape of live-service gaming, making their collaboration all the more intriguing. The Destiny 2-inspired 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 enticing thought.
