Destiny 2 has a really fun Overwatch homage if you can manage to do well in PVP

Iron Banner + Easter egg = Reaper

Although Destiny 2‘s Lord Saladin sounds like Optimus Prime (Peter Cullen) in the flesh, he’s actually played by Keith Ferguson, who also happens to voice Reaper in Overwatch. Now I think you know where this is going, given that Activision Blizzard is keen to stuff Overwatch references in nearly everything.

Yep, if you happen to play Iron Banner in Destiny 2and score a 20-person kill streak, you’ll trigger a “Die! Die! Die!” voiceline from Saladin, a reference to Reaper’s Death Blossom ultimate. As a cute cutaway Saladin coughs and proclaims that he’s been “watching too many Iron Banner matches,” keeping the whole thing in-character.

This is the right kind of balance — I doubt anyone will find this obnoxious unless you really hate Overwatch.
