Rumor: Destiny Could Be Crossing Over With Ghostbusters

A Destiny 2 datamine suggests that the game could be crossing over with the iconic Ghostbusters franchise in the near future. Previously, Destiny 2 collaborated with the likes of Assassin's Creed, Arknights, God of War, and Ghost of Tsushima to name a few.

Destiny 2 Season of the Wishis still well underway, as Bungie shifted some of its plans after the delay of The Final Shape.

Speculation points to the Ghostbusters collaboration being a tie-in for the new Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire film, which premieres on March 22.
