What a lot of people forget about the world of Destiny 2 is that, despite the game being combat-centric and focusing on the exploits of the Guardians and their allies, the world of Destiny is just that: a world. Not everything in it relates back to fighting, and many of the little touches that flesh out the universe that the players are fighting to save have become beloved cannon.

Now seems to be the time when many players are craving some of that non-combat (or at least non-dire) goodness from Destiny 2, as intense game modes like Grandmaster are not as rewarding as players would have hoped. To combat the grind and provide an alternative look at the world of Destiny 2, Bungie has teamed up with Insight Editions and author Victoria Rosenthal to bring something special to players. The result is the Destiny Official Cookbook, a collection of real-world equivalent recipes to the various goodies and meals found within the Destiny universe, fully cookable within the average Terran kitchen.

The premise of the book is that these recipes have been diligently collected from Guardians all across the Destiny universe and brought together into an all-purpose cookbook, and there are a lot of these recipes. The book itself is over 208 pages long, with a picture included with each recipe, which ranges from simple Coleslaw to distinctly Destiny treats like the famous Gjallerdoodle cookies, as well as several mixed drinks. It’s the kind of thing that ensures even when Destiny 2 players leave the game, they will still carry the universe they first came to love with them in the form of its food.

Destiny 2 is not the first game, or even the first game series, to release a cookbook, and it is always a fascinating and fun experience to look into the culinary aspect of a fictional world that usually means just one thing to players: battle. Now may be exactly the time for a more home-centric vision of universes like Destiny and Elder Scrolls (which also has a cookbook), as players look for new ways to stay healthy and take brakes from their favorite games.

Destiny 2 is available for PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
