Destiny 2 developers have confirmed a wave of new Star Wars-inspired cosmetics are heading to the game.
As part of the new Heresy Act One update, players will be able to access three new Star Wars outfits, developed alongside Lucasfilm Games.
Hunters will be able to wear the black armour of the elite Death Troopers, Warlocks will be able to recreate the menacing look of the Royal Guard while Titans get the classic Stormtrooper outfit. According to Bungie, “an intrinsic perk that tanks your accuracy” is included (via PC Gamer).
Helpful Ghost robots will also be able to get a Death Star makeover, though it’s likely the planet-destroying super laser is purely for aesthetic purposes.
There’s more Star Wars on the way for Destiny 2 players as well, with senior social media manager Andy Salisbury promising “a sparrow, a ship, emotes and a finisher” will be added to the game during a special livestream. Heresy Act One launches February 4 with two more chapters set for release in the coming months.
Heresy is the third and final episode for Destiny 2 and will act as an epilogue for the ten-year Light And Darkness Saga which ended with last year’s The Final Shape expansion.
The latest Destiny 2 update will see the return of fabled Hive ship, The Dreadnaught. “What’s significant about the Dreadnaught’s return for Heresy is that it’s going to be changing, and we’re going to be fighting through it in ways we’ve yet to experience,” said Destiny 2 narrative architect Nikko Stevens.
“The Dreadnaught has reawakened for the first time in almost a decade, spurring the Vanguard and Guardians across the system to take notice. We finally get to see what has become of the Dreadnaught years after Oryx was felled and its halls were left to corrode, without a Navigator.”
Meanwhile, Destiny 2 players are still having fun with the new spooky Scorn Pipe Organ that can be found in Kell’s Fall. Introduced as part of the Revenant episode, the musical instrument has been used to cover everything from Eminem to Rick Astley.
