Best Crossover Skins In Destiny 2

Summary

Destiny 2 features armor sets inspired by various franchises, ranging from uninspired to desirable, with Star Wars standing out.
Crossovers like Mass Effect offer unique sets for each class, but lack Destiny's creative flair, blending well with other sets.
The Witcher armor sets capture the essence of high fantasy, meeting player demand, while D&D sets offer unique aesthetics but have compatibility issues.

As is the case with many live-service games, Destiny 2 has seen its fair share of crossovers and collaborations, with Destiny characters appearing in games like Fortnite and Fall Guys. On the flip side, Destiny has seen several armor sets inspired by legends from different universes across the entertainment multiverse.

This topic looks at all the armor sets currently in Destiny 2 that are inspired by other franchises and ranks them on how well each set adapts its original text into Destiny's visual style, while maintaining its own unique identity.

7 Street Fighter

Blanka's Head, As A Helmet

Blanka Universal Helmet Ornament for all three classes

Going at the bottom of the list, the Street Fighter crossover was hugely unimpressive in terms of its armor cosmetic offering. With one item across all three Destiny classes, the Blanka universal helmet ornament does hold true to its origins, looking like Blanka's head placed onto a Guardian, but it feels as out of place as Destiny's in-universe Halloween masks.

Outside of cosplaying as one specific Street Fighter character, this helmet has little practical application for any Guardian's outfit, and ultimately feels like a bit of an eyesore when compared to the other armor sets on this list.

6 Mass Effect

Bring Shepard's Style To Destiny

Shadow Broker Set for Warlocks
N7 Set for Titans
Vakarian Set for Hunters

The Mass Effect crossover brought a unique set of armor for each class, individually inspired by three separate characters from the Mass Effect games. With Titans getting the N7 armor, inspired by Commander Shepard, Hunters getting the Vakarian armor, inspired by Garrus Vakarian, and Warlocks getting the Shadow Broker armor, inspired by Liara T'Soni, these sets are a fantastic homage to the classic sci-fi RPG franchise.

The main downside to these sets is that they feel somewhat generic by Destiny's standards, lacking the creative flair that many players have come to appreciate within Destiny's armor design. While this does make them work well as pieces to fit into combined outfits, rather than a dedicated outfit on their own, it means that they have faded into the background for many players.

5 Fortnite

A Victory Royale In The Fashion Game

Painted Kitsune Set for Warlocks
Knightly Noire Set for Titans
Eternal Vengeance Set for Hunters

Fortnite is truly the premier example of crossover oversaturation, with there being more skins based on other IPs than Epic Games' own original content. With Destiny characters being within that roster, it seems only right that several of Fortnite's original characters have made their way into Destiny in the form of these armor sets.

While the characters themselves aren't overly notable, unlike other options on this list, where this collab shines is in providing Destiny players with several individual armor pieces that have become staples in many players' fashion loadouts. The Warlock robe, in particular, is a common sight, with unique glowing effects making it highly desirable.

4 The Witcher

Slay The Monsters Of Old In Style

Hexer Set for Warlocks
Kaer Morhen Set for Titans
White Wolf Set for Hunters

Inspired by an award-winning game, book, and TV series, the fashion inspired by The Witcher is nothing short of bewitching. Destiny is a game that, despite its fantasy elements, has a distinct lack of high-fantasy and medieval-inspired armor sets, with armor hailing from Iron Banner being one of the few truly fantasy-looking sets available. The Witcher collab ornaments fill this niche perfectly, with a meshing of leather and iron providing the solution many players were looking for.

While all three sets look strikingly similar, this doesn't drastically harm the crossover's effectiveness, as they each capture the essence of their source media as perfectly as Destiny possibly can. The main detractor is that, thanks to their distinct medieval look, pieces within the set can struggle to fit into looks including armor from within Destiny's own universe.

3 Dungeons & Dragons

Become Monstrous

Flayer's Dominion Set for Warlocks
Apex Draconic Set for Titans
Spectral Displacer Set for Hunters

On the other side of the coin from the previously mentioned collab, the Dungeons & Dragons crossover allows players to become the monsters that Witchers set out to destroy. With three unique sets inspired by the Gold Dragons, Mindflayers, and Displacer Beasts of D&D fame, this crossover provides some of the most unique-looking armor in the game.

These, unfortunately, suffer a similar issue to The Witcher sets, in that their wholly unique aesthetics cause each armor piece to be largely incompatible with any other armor in the game, without some serious help from shaders. Despite this, it is hard to argue against the sheer level of cool these armors exude, especially for those familiar with the TTRPG they are based on.

2 PlayStation

Represent Some Of Sony's All-Stars

Ancestral Set for Warlocks
Godsbane Set for Titans
Anointed Set for Hunters

This crossover is a unique entry, being the only one based not on one franchise, but three entirely different ones, all owned by Sony. Warlocks gain access to a set inspired by Ghost of Tsushima, allowing them to embody the samurai Jin Sakai as they tear their way through the solar system. Titans are given a set inspired by the legendary Kratos from God of War, truly living up to the guardian legacy of god slaying. Finally, Hunters are offered a set inspired by the hunter of metal beasts, Aloy from Horizon: Zero Dawn.

Each set encapsulates the energy of a different game franchise and translates this into Destiny's visual style with enough flair to make them stand apart from other armor sets, while keeping true enough to the design language of the game to make them compatible with existing armor. As is the case with all these crossovers, these armor sets are a way for a player to express their love for other games, just with greater freedom of choice than the others.

1 Star Wars

Armor From A Galaxy Far, Far Away

Royal Protector and Marauder Progeny Sets for Warlocks
Shock Enforcer and Obsidian Durasteel Sets for Titans
Covert Ranger and Cyborg Nemesis Sets for Hunters

Being the only franchise with two unique waves of crossover cosmetics, Star Wars takes the top spot on this list thanks to the variety of armor sets available and how well they straddle the line between Destiny armor and Star Wars reference. The first set of armor bundles released was put up in the Eververse cash shop and included armor inspired by units in the Imperial Army. Titans got Stormtrooper armor, Hunters Shadow Trooper armor, and Warlocks the robes of the Imperial Guard.

The second wave of cosmetics from Star Wars comes in the form of the Dark Side Legends bundle, only available by preordering the Destiny 2: Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition, making it the most expensive crossover item on this list. Despite this, it includes three new armor sets, one for each class, inspired by General Grievous, Darth Vader, and Kylo Ren, respectively. Star Wars has clearly been the most lucrative crossover for Bungie and takes the top spot here because of its variety of cosmetics.
