X-Men: Destiny is an action role-playing video game based on the X-Men comic book series. It was developed by Silicon Knights. Written by Mike Carey, the writer of the X-Men: Legacy comic book series, it was published and released by Activision for the Nintendo DS, PlayStation 3, Wii, and Xbox 360 consoles.

Along with many other games published by Activision that had used a Marvel license, X-Men: Destiny was de-listed and subsequently removed from all digital storefronts on January 1, 2014. Due to legal issues between Silicon Knights and Epic Games over the misuse of Unreal Engine 3 code, both X-Men: Destiny and another game, Too Human, were recalled, and had their unsold copies destroyed. As such, it marks as the final game to be developed by Silicon Knights before filing for bankruptcy in 2014.
