This week in transmedia synergy crosspromos that will break your brain along with the sanctity of whatever canon is left to us in MMOs is BioWare and Bungie, which have announced a collab between Destiny 2 and Mass Effect. It actually fits kinda perfectly.
“Today, Bungie announces its new collaboration with EA and BioWare to allow Guardians to join the crew of the Normandy with new cosmetics and in-game items, launching February 13, 2024. The Normandy Crew Bundle will be available at the Eververse store in-game and will include a Commander Shepard-inspired N7 armor set for Titans, a Garrus-inspired Vakarian set for Hunters, and a Liara-inspired Shadow Broker set for Warlocks. In celebration of the partnership, all players will be able to claim the Alliance Requisitions Bundle, including the Enhanced Defense Ghost Shell, Alliance Scout Frigate ship, and Alliance Drop Ship Sparrow, which will be available at no cost. Players can also get the Omni Strike finisher and Flux Dance emote for Silver.”
That’s all well and good to ring in Valentine’s Day, but what about right now? Well, Destiny 2 has launched two things today: Riven’s Wishes and Moments of Triumphs. Riven’s Wishes are weekly quests that run through March 12th, while Moments of Triumph are characterized as part of a “celebratory capstone event” that “sets the stage before The Final Shape.”
“Players can look forward to the annual Guardian Games celebration launching in March, and Destiny 2: Into the Light, an upcoming two-month content update available to all players, will be releasing in April,” Bungie reminds players. “Destiny 2: The Final Shape launches on June 4, 2024, when Guardians will attempt to travel into The Pale Heart of the Traveler, take on the Witness, and rally their allies to end the ten-year War of Light and Darkness.”
