Destiny 2’s next crossover adds The Witcher swag

Toss a coin for some Witcher content in Destiny 2

Bungie has officially announced an unexpected collaboration for both Destiny players and The Witcher fans. CD PROJEKT RED will partner up with Bungie to debut Witcher-inspired content in Destiny 2. The crossover is set to launch alongside Destiny 2’s Season of the Wish on November 28.

This isn’t the first time Destiny has seen a crossover with another franchise, but it’s certainly among the more high-profile, right along with the previous Sony crossover. That collaboration introduced armor sets inspired by God of WarHorizon Zero Dawn, and Ghost of Tsushima. The next set of Guardian cosmetics adds more armor to your closet, along with a finisher, Ghost shell𓄧, ship, Sparrow, and emote.

Guardians meet The Witcher

The crossover is inspired by the famed monster slayer Geralt of Rivia. As far as Guardian cosmetics go, the collaboration between Bungie and CD PROJEKT RED looks to have produced some genuinely unique pieces embracing the source material. The result is something that steeps Bungie’s fantasy-inspired sci-fi aesthetic even further into fantasy elements. Accouterments of The Witcher are visible, with rustic leather belts and woven hoods accenting the three Guardian Class appeara෴nces.

Each class sports a distinct look, with Titans outfitted in something reminiscent of heavy armor Geralt could wear in The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings — gratuitous amounts of chainmail and all. Hunters look like they might have Redanian colors, with a matching red set of pants, cloak, and hood. Over most of the Hunter’s armor, it’s accented with studded leather. Then there’s the Warlocks, battle mages decked out in sporadic metal bits, leather, and cloth robes. All Classes have two swords sheathed on their backs.

Beyond Witcher-themed armor, there’s an additional few in-game items, including a Ghost shell, ship, and Sparrow. While the Sparrow and ship remain elusive, the promotional art offers a glimpse at the Ghost. It’s hard to say with certainty, but it could be a twist on Geralt’s iconic wolf medallion. Additionally, players can express themselves with a unique emote and finisher, adding another touch of The Witcher‘s flair to Destiny.

If you’re wondering how much it’ll cost you, Bungie has yet to reveal specific pricing for its upcoming cosmetics, but it wouldn’t be surprising if the cost aligns with the last big crossover. Back in the day, Bungie’s various PlayStation cosmetics ran players $20 per Class armor set. The community didn’t love the price, but the cosmetics appeared popular nonetheless. Given that the premium Eververse releases always see some adoption, the previous price points are likely here to stay.
