Destiny 2 has announced a new crossover, this time withGhostbusters. This includes three cosmetics that will be available starting on March 19, just three days before Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire comes to theaters.
Like other recent live service games, Destiny 2 is no stranger to crossovers. Just in the past couple of months, the game has received cosmetics based onThe WitcherandMass Effect.
However, this latest announcement has fans divided, with many sharing their frustrations over how Bungie and Sony are handling Destiny 2.
Destiny 2 players disappointed in Ghostbusters crossover
While theGhostbusters collaborationbundle won’t be available for another week, early reactions from Destiny 2 players are split. Though some fans of both franchises are looking forward to the crossover, lots of players have been more critical.
Several social media comments echo a sentiment shared byone Reddit user: “who asked for this?”
Though other Destiny 2 collabs were more positively received, many have pointed out that these Ghostbusters items don’t fit with the game’s look the way past crossovers have. As oneReddit userput it, “the Mass Effect items don’t strike me as anything different than the usual Destiny fare. However, the latest Ghostbuster collab breaks that aesthetic.”
Some compared the decision to other service games, with oneTwitter usersaying, “This is like the equivalent of putting Nickelodeon characters in Smite. Makes no sense and is the ultimate sign of dead game.”
Anotherpleaded with the devs, “Please don’t turn into Fortnite.”
