ADestiny 2player has bolstered the forces of the Vanguard and the Guardians with Turtle Power, thanks to a set of creativeTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-themed armor customizations. TheDestiny 2armor sets cleverly replicate the look of all four pizza-loving reptiles, using careful arrangements of armor parts and color shaders.
Thanks in part to the game’s vibrant and creative community,Destiny 2continues to burnish its broader pop culture credentials. The game has seen multiple branded crossover cosmetic sets hit its premium Eververse store, including armor customizations based on games likeGod of War,Assassin’s Creed, and evenFortnite. Not every crossover has gone over well, though, with a lukewarm reception for a recentDestiny 2 Ghostbusterscosmetic pack.
That said, these licensed brand collaborations pale in comparison to the energy creative fans can bring when expressing their love for, say, theMaster Chief fromHalo. One of those fans is user I_am_Rezix, who shared a comprehensive customization key based on theTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtleswith theDestiny 2subreddit. All four costumes use parts for aDestiny 2Titan Guardian, and in keeping with the status of the turtles as siblings, uses the same parts, with the variety coming from color blocking via shader setups.
The core of I_am_Rezix’sTMNTarmor customization is the premium Wolf-Kissed Plate chest piece, which is based on aniconic armor set fromAssassin’s Creed Valhalla. The Wolf-Kissed Plate carries a large circular shield on its back at all times, giving the armor the effect of a big turtle shell. Meanwhile, the Parade Helm from the newDestiny 2: Into the Lightupdate armor set resembles the turtles' smooth, bandanna-covered faces. The Exotic Augmented Auspice arms, Retro-Grade TG2 legs, and Midnight Exigent class item rounds out the armor’s silhouette.
Destiny 2community members were quick to praise I_am_Rezix’s work, paying particular attention to their careful selection of armor shaders to distinguish between turtles Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo. I_am_Rezix selected just the right shaders to continually maintain the turtles' green skin coloration while still adopting an appropriate color for each sibling, an aesthetic that has remained consistent and unchanging throughmany iterations of theTMNTanimated series.

The appeal of theTMNT-themed armor customization excited the community, and many fellowDestiny 2players echoed I_am_Rezix’s call for Bungie to add a four-player activity to the game, so that a team can finally bring all four Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to the Last City’s defense.
