Summary
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.

Destiny 2 has embraced Star Wars vibes through official collaborations and themed content. For example, when Destiny 2: Heresy Act I launched in February 2025, Bungie and Lucasfilm introduced Star Wars armor sets for each class—Hunters wear the Death Trooper-inspired Covert Ranger, Warlocks the Imperial Guard-inspired Royal Protector, and Titans the Stormtrooper-inspired Shock Enforcer—along with a Death Star Ghost shell. These items debuted day one with Heresy and were shown in coverage like The Verge and detailed by GameSpot.

In addition, the Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition bundled Star Wars flavor into cosmetics with the Dark Side Legends Bundle, offering class ornaments modeled after Darth Vader, General Grievous, and Kylo Ren. Reports from outlets like Polygon describe these Dark Side items and the Star Wars aesthetic as part of the Ultimate Edition.
Looking ahead, Destiny 2: Renegades (launched December 2, 2025) takes the Star Wars influence further, adding Praxic Blade (Destiny’s take on a lightsaber) and a Blaster energy-archetype, plus a Lawless Frontier mode and Tharsis Outpost hub. Bungie’s official notes confirm the Star Wars–inspired expansion, with coverage on PlayStation Blog. Some outlets, like [GamesRadar], argue Renegades leans into a Star Wars vibe rather than a straight crossover to preserve Destiny’s own identity.
