A thrilling crossover is making waves as Sea of Thieves, a Microsoft game, welcomes elements from Sony's Destiny 2 into its high-seas adventures. The newly introduced Lightbearer cosmetics set, inspired by Destiny 2, brings a fresh array of items to the game, including new flags, ship decorations, and a captivating costume set.

Rare's title has not only sustained its popularity but also achieved notable success on the PlayStation 5, topping an EU sales chart upon its release on the platform.
Meanwhile, Destiny 2 has rolled out the Heresy update, continuing to evolve post its major narrative climax in The Final Shape. The space-faring shooter has also engaged in other crossovers, notably with Star Wars, showcasing its versatility in the live-service gaming landscape.
Both Sea of Thieves and Destiny 2 have successfully navigated the dynamic world of live-service games, and this crossover is a testament to their enduring appeal. The Destiny 2-inspired cosmetics are now available in Sea of Thieves, sparking curiosity about potential Sea of Thieves-themed content in Destiny 2.
