Overwatch 2 & Sea of Thieves are crossing over but not how you’d expect

Overwatch 2 and Sea of Thieves are getting an unexpected crossover and here’s everything you need to know about it.

Overwatch 2 has had its fair share of crossovers throughout the years. Titles likeMy Hero Academia, One Punch Man, andCowboy Bebopwere all available in the game at one point or another, giving some of the heroes in the roster quite the makeover fitting to characters in these popular franchises.

Though that’s the case, Blizzard also doesn’t shy away from collaborating with several brands, and even with the K-pop girl groupLE SSERAFIM.

Now, in a surprising turn of events, the hero shooter will also be crossing over with another video game, one outside of Blizzard’s umbrella. Sea of Thieves is next in line – but not in a way you’d think.

The Premium Edition itself costs $59.99 USD, and it will allow you to have access to all these cosmetics as well as other additions:

Meanwhile, those who are just interested in the game and aren’t too keen on getting all the rewards can also opt to pre-order the game for $39.99 USD or the Deluxe Edition for $49.99 USD. The latter isn’t as expensive as the Premium Edition, but it includes fewer bonus cosmetics.
