Destiny 2 has collaborated with well-known series like Street Fighter 6 in the past, adding unique elements such as Chun-li’s emotes, Ghost shells modeled after Ryu, and helmets themed around Blanka. These collaborations may not be as frequent or in-depth as in Fortnite, but they give an exciting twist to the game’s premium content.

Moving beyond the Star Wars partnership, the forthcoming Destiny 2 enhancement focuses on enhancing the Trials of Osiris for a more user-friendly Player vs Player experience. Additionally, there’s exciting news about a new Nether activity, adjustments to skill set customization, and an upgraded exotic weapon that adds depth to the game’s storyline and gameplay dynamics.

This collaboration presents a distinctive chance to combine the enduring charm of Star Wars with Bungie’s science fiction realm. Not only does it introduce fresh skins, but this strategic decision also represents the developers’ ongoing commitment to engage their audience. With Episode Heresy Act 1, we embark on a new chapter in storytelling and live service content.
