Everything to Know About For Honor’s Collaboration With Destiny 2
Two Destiny 2-Themed Hero Skins Have Been Introduced to For Honor for the Event
Aside from the unique narrative ofFor Honor’sDestiny 2-themed Halloween event, two new hero skins are coming to the game as well for the Lawbringer and the Centurion. The Violet King Hero Skin, inspired byDestiny 2’s Trials of Osiris games master, Saint-14, is available for the Lawbringer inFor Honorduring the event. The Crucible Lord Hero Skin, on the other hand, is available for the Centurion and was inspired byDestiny 2’s Crucible games master,Lord Shaxx. Both Hero Skins aren’t exact replicas of Saint-14 and Lord Shaxx and still maintainFor Honor’s aesthetics, but the resemblance they bear to thoseDestiny 2characters is certainly uncanny.
Players will be allowed to acquire bothDestiny 2-themed Hero Skins even after Light of the Guardians ends.
Light of the Guardians Features a Free Event Pass and Even More Destiny 2-Themed Rewards
DuringLight of the Guardians, players will also have access to a free event pass inFor Honor, which includes some exclusive rewards.
