The upcoming expansion for Destiny 2, titled *Renegades*, is set to launch on December 2, 2023. This addition marks a bold shift towards a more Star Wars-inspired theme, featuring iconic elements such as lightsabers and characters like Darth Vader. Bungie, the developer behind Destiny, unveiled this expansion during a livestream event focused on the game’s Year of Prophecy roadmap.
Details of the *Renegades* Expansion
Besides the inclusion of classic Star Wars weaponry—as indicated by the appearance of Han Solo’s blaster and a green lightsaber—the teaser for the *Renegades* DLC suggests a deeper integration with the Star Wars universe. The trailer showcases Guardians traversing a desert landscape reminiscent of Tatooine, hinting at a more expansive thematic approach beyond simple cosmetic items.
New Cosmetics and Skins
The expansion will introduce exclusive skins for the Hunter, Titan, and Warlock classes, inspired by Star Wars characters such as General Grievous, Darth Vader, and Kylo Ren. These will be offered as part of the *Destiny 2: Year of Prophecy* Ultimate Edition, which also includes another expansion called *The Edge of Fate*, scheduled for release in July.
Additional Content and Features
Expect to see an array of new cosmetic items including sparrow designs and other decorations. The anticipation builds around a Marksman-H combat remote decoration for players’ Ghosts, which fans hope will be available as part of this themed content release.
Earlier this year, Destiny 2 flirted with Star Wars aesthetics by introducing cosmetics based on Stormtrooper and Death Trooper designs in conjunction with the *Heresy* expansion. The blend of these two franchises points to an exciting direction for *Destiny 2*, appealing to fans of both gaming universes. *Destiny 2: Renegades* and *The Edge of Fate* will launch on multiple platforms, including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
