Player-created Destiny 2 Star Wars Costumes Evoke Samurai Stormtroopers and More
Star Wars Samurai Stormtrooper Destiny 2 Costume (Hunter)
One of the most original works is a Hunter costume by user DPT_Doofy, designed to look like the popularStar Wars Samurailine of alternative character designs. Also seen in a recentFortnitexStar Wars Samuraicrossover,DPT_Doofy’s Samurai Stormtrooper design evokes Hunter parts from a variety of different sources centered around the Covert Ranger Mask, which is based on theRogue OneDeath Trooper design. The ensemble creates a credible facsimile of the samurai-themed Stormtrooper armor, bringing its medieval Japanese styling to the far-future setting ofDestiny 2.
Star Wars Beach Trooper Destiny 2 Costume (Titan)
Meanwhile, a sillierDestiny 2Stormtrooper costume from user slipshodleaf74 paid tribute to the “Beach Trooper,” a joke character found in theLego Star Warsgames. Mostly using parts from theDestiny 2Titan Stormtrooper armorintroduced with the crossover, slipshodleaf74 used bits of alternative color blocking from the Mimetic Savior plate to recall the swimsuit worn by the now-iconic Beach Trooper, who eschews all but the default Imperial Stormtrooper helmet in their quest for fun in the sun.
From the looks of things, theStar WarsDestiny 2crossover is a big hit. That’s no surprise, consideringStar Wars’popularity, but it also speaks to how closely aligned theDestiny 2aesthetic can be with some of the most beloved costumes of all time.
