Yes—Destiny 2 now includes a lightsaber-style weapon as part of its 2025 Renegades expansion. The Praxic Blade is Destiny 2’s interpretation of a lightsaber, glowing with a blade and color-changing crystals (blue or green) that you can upgrade as you progress. It isn’t a direct Star Wars license, but a Bungie take on a lightsaber-like sword within the game’s own lore. You obtain it by completing the Fire and Ice mission in Renegades (step 33) and you can further enhance it through the Praxic Path quest to unlock additional crystals and traits.

Renegades is explicitly Star Wars-inspired and expands Destiny 2’s universe with Lucasfilm collaboration, including the Praxic Blade and Star Wars-themed cosmetics. If you’re chasing a broader Star Wars vibe, the Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition also teases themed armor ornaments and other crossover loot, reinforcing Bungie’s homage rather than a full franchise crossover.

Q.Are there any Star Wars inspired elements or crossovers in Destiny 2?

A.Yes—Destiny 2 has Star Wars-inspired elements, first via official crossovers in early 2025 and then a larger Star Wars–themed expansion later that year. Lucasfilm collaboration has brought armor, cosmetics, and weapons that nod to Star Wars, but it’s not a full canonical crossover; it’s Star Wars aesthetics woven into Destiny’s world.
