Man, seeing Destiny 2 gear in Sea of Thieves is such a fun mashup—imagine rocking a pirate hat while wielding a Ghost as your compass. Rare really knows how to keep the game feeling fresh with these unexpected collabs. The Lightbearer cosmetics look slick, but I’m low-key more excited about the hunting spears—finally, a proper way to harpoon those pesky megalodons in style.

Who would’ve thought pirates and Guardians would make such a cool combo Rare and Bungie teaming up feels like a match made in gaming heaven, and those Destiny cosmetics are gonna be irresistible for collectors. Love seeing crossovers like this—it’s wild how Sea of Thieves keeps finding fresh ways to stay relevant. The hunting spears sound like a blast, but let’s be real, we’re all here for the drip.
