Destiny 2 now has knockoff Halo weapons

In celebration of their 30th anniversary, Bungie has added an assortment of Halo, Myth, and Maraton themed weapons to Destiny 2.

The new weapons, which are being added to Destiny 2 as part of a free weapons cache, include off-brand ‘replicas’ of Halo’s iconic Magnum, Battle Rifle, Pulse Carbine, and Energy Sword, as well as a pair of weapons inspired by previous Bungie games Myth and Marathon.

Alongside the weapons, players will be able to enjoy a new six-player activity, Dares of Eternity. In this raid “Xûr (and a horse made of stars) invites you to play a game. Spin a giant wheel, impress the eternal equine, and leave footprints in gold as you make your way through Xûr’s Treasure Hoard.”

As part of their 30th-anniversary celebrations, Bungie has also launched the Destiny 2: Bungie 30th Anniversary Pack, which includes a new three-player dungeon, Grasp of Avarice, as well as the return of the fan-favourite Gjallarhorn rocket launcher for $24.99.

If you’re looking for actual Halo weaponry in your game, then you’re in luck, as we’re just a few short hours, and then a 30GB download, away from the launch of Halo Infinite’s campaign, which is available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and also on Xbox Game Pass.
