Destiny 2 Is Doing a Mass Effect Collab Event in February

Earlier on Tuesday, Bungie announced a collaboration with EA for a Destiny 2 Mass Effect crossover event on February 13. The event will let players "join the crew of the Normandy" and deck out their guardians in Mass Effect armor and in-game items.


"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," Bungie wrote in a press release. "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."

The official Mass Effect Twitter account responded in kind to today's gaming collaboration event with a GIF of Commander Shepard doing his terrible-yet-iconic dance.


Mass Effect isn't the only thing coming to the MMO-inspired sci-fi shooter. New weekly quests called Raven's Wishes will run from January 30 through March 12. Completing these pursuit quests will reward players with tokens they can use to Wish for Strength, Protection, or Beauty to respectively earn Last Wish raid Deepsight weapons, Exotic gear from the Lightfall year, or Ascendant crafting materials. Players will also have the opportunity to purchase a Moments of Triumph t-shirt from the Bungie Store by completing past raids and dungeons in this year's Lighfall celebration event which runs from January 30 to June 3.


Toward the end of the press release, Bungie teased its roadmap of content releases. Chief among them being the return of the Guardian Games in March, April's Destiny 2: Into the Light content update, and the launch of its long-awaited major story expansion Destiny 2: The Final Shape. Destiny 2: The Final Shape, which was delayed in November following mass layoffs, will launch on June 4.
