Destiny-inspired Lightbearer cosmetics for you and your ship are headed to Sea of Thieves.

Comments

After rumors and leaks floated about a potential collaboration, it's official: Sea of Thieves is bringing the looks of Destiny 2 to the high seas with today's update. Players can deck out their ship and crew with swanky Lightbearer items and gear such as Ghost anchors and sails bearing the signs of either Hunter, Warlock, or Titan. There are even class-themed figureheads, wheels, and a ship's crest, bearing Destiny insignias.

You can check out the trailer below to see the full Lightbearer assortment, including a Drifter costume and a Whisper of the Worm ornament for the Eye of Reach. Players can visit the Pirate Emporium to gear up for battle. Eyes up, mateys.

"Even though it might not seem like an obvious choice, Destiny's classes and co-operative play presented a 'crew-like' bond that we thought was a great fit, along with some striking iconography, vivid art style and a sense of being mythical in tone and scope," Adam Park, Rare's director of brand and licensing, told Xbox News.

After an initial deal was made, what would actually be used in the update came down to Andria Warren, director of creative operations at Rare, who oversaw the development and said it was a deeply collaborative process.

"From the earliest concept sketches to finalizing designs that honored both universes, every step challenged us to think differently," she said. "We explored how iconic Destiny elements could be reimagined through a Sea of Thieves lens, translating tone, visual language, and character into something that felt fresh but unmistakably faithful. It pushed our teams creatively in the best possible way, and the result is something we're truly proud of!"

To get the Lightbearer Big Bundle, it'll set you back 4999 Ancient Coins--about $50, or $45 with game pass. The weapons bundle, which features four ornaments--including the Ace of Spades--and costs 499 Ancient Coins. Each ship bundle, decorated with Hunter, Warlock, or Titan themes, costs 3499 Ancient Coins. Sails and figureheads are 899, and the Drifter costume is 999.
