Bungie increasingly loves pop culture crossovers for Destiny 2, and the new Dungeons & Dragons-inspired cosmetics coming to the game feel like a natural fit for the shooter. Sure, the Beholder-inspired Ghost shell may be a bit of a stretch, but when we’re getting a Mindflayer set for Warlocks, can we really complain?
Destiny 2’s new Dungeons & Dragons collaboration will drop on June 4, the same day the new expansion The Final Shape arrives, officially. The D&D collab includes Faerûn-inspired looks including the aforementioned Flayer’s Dominion set for Warlocks, Apex Draconic set for Titans, and Spectral Displacer set for Hunters. An Adventurer’s Pack bundle will include a Queen of Dragons (aka Tiamat) ship, the Owlbear Chariot Sparrow, and the Eye Tyrant Ghost shell.
Here’s a closer look at some of those cosmetics:
Guardians can also equip the Bigby’s Fist finisher and the Natural 20 emote — which rolls a 20-sided die for random rolls — as part of the crossover. All that stuff will be available in Destiny 2’s Eververse store.
Bungie’s been leaning in on bringing other fantasy and sci-fi properties to Destiny 2 in recent years, including cosmetics based on The Witcher, Mass Effect, and PlayStation games The Last of Us, Horizon: Zero Dawn, God of War, and Ghost of Tsushima. The Fortnite-ification of Destiny 2 also extended in the opposite direction, with Destiny crossovers for Fortnite itself and competitive bean game Fall Guys.
When it arrives next week, Destiny 2: The Final Shape will serve as a narrative end to the War of Light and Darkness, and bring with it a new advanced subclass, a new destination, and a new campaign. Some Destiny fans on PlayStation platforms have already gotten their hands on The Final Shape, unintentionally, as a portion of the expansion’s content was “accidentally pushed live on PS5’s streaming service,” Bungie said. Beware of spoilers!
