Summary
A cleverDestiny 2player has used the game’s versatile costume customization system to recreate a scene from the famousAttack on Titananime series. TheirDestiny 2costumes use parts available to Hunter and Titan Guardians as their base.
ThoughDestiny 2has a fairly distinctive visual style and design aesthetic all its own, its many years in operation have expanded the game’s potential for player expression and customization greatly. Ever since the introduction of theDestiny 2armor transmog system, every new piece of armor or color shader added expands the pool of options available to players looking to create a customized armor set for their Guardian. The system has proven to be versatile, whether a player is seeking something original for themselves or aiming to copy an iconic character’s appearance.
One such costume from a player, who goes by TheOGSteakSandwhich on Reddit, pays homage toAttack on Titanwith a pair of creative costumes recreating the appearances of character Mikasa Ackerman and the Colossal Titan monster. TheOGSteakSandwhich submitted the designs to theDestiny 2Reddit community alongside a staged scene where a Guardian dressed like Mikasa swings to attack a Guardian dressed as theiconicAttack on TitanColossal Titan.
Destiny 2 Attack on Titan Costumes Recreate Mikasa and the Colossal Titan
TheOGSteakSandwhich used a Hunter Guardian’s sleek silhouette to recreateseries heroine Mikasa Ackerman. The signature leather jacket of the Survey Corps came from the Limitless Subversion Vest torso armor with the Luxe Sleeves. The boots and straps unique to the show’s omnidirectional maneuver gear were replicated by theWitchercrossover White Wolf Strides and the jacket-like Couturier Cloak. SinceAttack on Titancharacters typically don’t wear helmets, the Ana Bray Festival of the Lost Mask ably gave the Guardian the appearance of an uncovered face. Finally, the outfit’s traditional leather-and-cloth coloration came from the Vanguard Metallic shader, with Ancient Believer lending leather tones to the boots.
Meanwhile, the Colossal Titan outfit expertly recreates the unique appearance ofone of the strongest characters inAttack on Titan. Using parts meant for a Titan Guardian, the Colossal Titan’s skull-like face was recreated by the eerie visage of the Veritas Helm. The Resonant Fury Plate, Legacy’s Oath Greaves, Pfthorian Mark, and the Augmented Auspice ornament for the Synthoceps Exotic arms evoke the Titan’s telltale exposed musculature. The bone-and-blood colors of the Colossal Titan come from the glossy red-and-white pattern of the Crucible Legacy shader. Players praised the costumes' accuracy and congratulated TheOGSteakSandwhich, with some commenters admitting to thinking the costume was simply edited in rather than created with actual in-game pieces.
The detailed work done by players looking to bendDestiny 2’s systems to suit their creative whims is inspiring and shows the lengths players will go to pay homage to their favorite shows within the game. It’s likely that players will only get more creative as time goes on and new content additions expand the pool of potential armor options even more.
