Bungie’s 2022 Destiny 2 Showcase is only a day away, but the studio experienced some major leaks for the event over this past weekend. Not only has information on some of the big Destiny2 reveals leaked out, but there is now substantial evidence that the Destiny universe is crossing over with Fortnite.
The deal will supposedly be announced at the showcase on Tuesday, and is rumored to go both ways. However, the only substantial evidence shows that Fortnite-themed skins are coming to Destiny, not the other way around. There are other leaks suggesting which Destiny cosmetics will come to Fortnite, but nothing as substantial.

Ginsor, a regular and reliable Destiny 2 data miner, posted the above tweet on Saturday after rumors started floating around about aFortnite-Destiny 2 collaboration. While it hasn’t been confirmed by any Destiny channels, the image was supposedly pulled from Bungie’s own website.
The image shows what appears to be a promotional image of three Guardians standing in Fortnite-inspired skins. The Titan (left) is wearing a set based off of Fortnite’s Black Knight, the Warlock (center) is wearing armor based on Drift, and the Hunter (right) is wearing armor based on Oblivion.
Based on the blue background, these armor items will likely be exclusive to the Eververse — Destiny 2’s real-money cosmetics shop — and may not be available to earn in-game otherwise. Armor sets like these are typically tied to activities if they’re available in-game, and there’s been no suggestions that any Fortnite-like gameplay event will come to Destiny 2.
