In recent news, Bungie unveiled an upcoming collaboration between Destiny 2 and CD Projekt Red’s acclaimed dark fantasy franchise, The Witcher. Arriving alongside the game’s next season on November 28th, the crossover will enable Destiny 2 players to take on the style of Geralt of Rivia, the monster-slaying protagonist of The Witcher games.
Guardians can make their characters look like the legendary White Wolf himself through new cosmetic items inspired by The Witcher universe. The Geralt of Rivia-themed ornament set contains armour pieces, letting players equip the witcher’s trademark armour. Additionally, a new Ghost shell, Sparrow vehicle, Ship, emote, and finisher will further allow Guardians to emulate Geralt’s appearance and mannerisms.

Release Date Announced For The Witcher Crossover Coming To Destiny 2
The crossover promotion coincides with Destiny 2’s Season of the Wish launch on November 28th. Season of the Wish is the third and final chapter of the ongoing Light and Darkness saga, pitting players against Destiny’s primordial villain, The Witness. The season will lead to the climactic showdown with The Witness in the upcoming Destiny 2 expansion Lightfall.
This creates interesting narrative crossover potential. Could tricks learned from Geralt’s monster-hunting past prove useful in the Guardians’ battle against Destiny 2’s cosmic evil? Players will have to wait and see.

These new cosmetics will bring an injection of dark fantasy flavour into the normally bright and colourful sci-fi world of Destiny. It creates an interesting blend sure to appeal to fans of both franchises. Players familiar with the monster-hunting adventures of Geralt can live out that fantasy in Destiny 2’s co-op multiplayer scenarios. Meanwhile, The Witcher fans new to Destiny 2 may find this collaboration draws fresh eyes.
The collaboration with CD Projekt Red’s acclaimed dark fantasy games highlights Destiny 2’s continuously expanding universe of tie-in content. Geralt’s inclusion and the smash sci-fi looter shooter game have already welcomed franchise guest stars like Halo’s Master Chief and Ubisoft’s Raving Rabbids. Bungie is eager to capitalize on pop culture crazes inside Destiny 2’s virtual worlds. What are you looking forward to with the Witcher Crossover coming to Destiny 2?
