Destiny 2 enthusiasts have much to look forward to with the unveiling of the Year of Prophecy roadmap, which promises an exciting Star Wars-inspired expansion pass. This year's roadmap is packed with new content that will enhance your gaming experience, and we're here to break down what you can expect from the different editions.
Year of Prophecy Roadmap Revealed at Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate Reveal Event
Destiny 2, the beloved free-to-play multiplayer shooter, is set to deliver an array of fresh content throughout the year. During the Edge of Fate reveal livestream on May 7, Bungie introduced the Year of Prophecy roadmap, outlining the upcoming events that will captivate players. This year marks a significant shift in the game's update structure. "Starting with the Year of Prophecy, each year will now feature four major content beats: two paid expansions and two major updates available to all," the developers announced. These updates will introduce new events, Exotic Missions, gear, and rewards, ensuring that all players can enjoy Destiny 2’s major updates without the need for paid access to seasonal activities.
The Edge of Fate Launches July 15
The Year of Prophecy kicks off with the first expansion, The Edge of Fate, set to launch on July 15. This expansion will transport players to the new location, Kepler, where they'll harness new abilities with the aid of fresh allies. Alongside the new location and abilities, The Edge of Fate introduces the Portal, a new activity selection screen designed to streamline access to a variety of activities tailored to different playstyles. This update also brings changes to the game's armor and tiering systems, new set bonuses, and a character stats rework. More details on these changes will be released in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for further updates.
Renegades Coming on December 2
Later this year, on December 2, Destiny 2 will release its second expansion, Renegades, in a thrilling collaboration with the iconic Star Wars franchise. This expansion blends Destiny's unique storytelling and gameplay with Star Wars' rich themes and elements, creating a sci-fi chapter that truly embodies the essence of both universes.
