I’m Commander Shepard, and these are my favorite cosmetics on the Citadel.
Bungie newest crossover event, announced on Tuesday, is with the classic Bioware franchise Mass Effect. The Normandy Crew Bundle will be available from February 13 in the Eververse store, and unlike other crossover sets, you can pick up some of the cosmetics at no extra cost.
Each Lot 2 class gets their own armor. Titans get access to the iconic Shepard N7 armor, while Hunters get the Garrus Vakarian set and Warlocks can grab a Shadow Broker set based on Liara T’Soni. The armor sets will likely cost around 2,000 silver per class, if anything like previous Bungie crossovers. That’s about $20 per class, or $60 if you want the whole set.
Unlike previous bundles, however, players can also pick up the Alliance Requisitions Bundle – which includes the Enhanced Defense Ghost Shell, the Alliance Scout Frigate ship, and the Alliance Drop Ship Sparrow – for free.
Some other Mass Effect-themed cosmetics that aren’t armor are silver-only, including the Omni Strike finisher and the Flux Dance emote. It’s unclear how much it will cost at this point, but other similar cosmetics will set players back between 1,000 and 1,200 silver. These items should still be available for purchase once Season of the Wish ends and The Final Shape expansion debuts.
This isn’t the first time Bungie has done an IP crossover, but it makes a lot more sense than others. The latest was with The Witcher franchise in December, which featured Geralt of Rivia-inspired cosmetic armor sets, along with a Ghost grenade and a ship. They looked great, but Mass Effect is a more natural fit for Destiny.
This announcement also coincides with the launch of Riven’s Wishes quests, which are now available in the game. These are high-risk objectives that players can grab from Mara Sov for a chance to win wish tokens as a reward.
Lot 2 abandons its seasonal model in favor of an episodic model ahead of the next major expansion, The final shape, which will be released on June 4. In the meantime, check out Moments of Triumph, where players can complete Triumphs and work towards a T-shirt.
