Bungie has given an update on their newest expansion for Destiny 2, The Final Shape. They posted this on their blog earlier today.
“The Final Shape is the culmination of the first ten years of Destiny storytelling and, for Guardians everywhere, countless hours spent together. We want to honor that journey, so we’re taking the time we need to deliver an even bigger and bolder vision, one that we hope will be remembered and treasured for years to come.
Naturally, this change brings up questions about our upcoming release calendar. Season of the Wish begins tomorrow and will extend until the launch of The Final Shape in June. While the majority of content and narrative for Season of the Wish will run from late November to February as originally planned, the team is adding new content available for all players to jump into until the launch of The Final Shape.
In February, this will include new weekly progression-based quests called Wishes, and the launch of Moments of Triumph with unique rewards. Next, we’re moving Guardian Games up to March with a refreshed focus on class vs. class competition. Then, beginning in April, we’re delivering a two-month content update available to everyone called Destiny 2: Into the Light, which will prepare players for their Guardian’s journey into the Traveler. All of this is in addition to the ongoing efforts from our PvP Strike Team, including three new PvP maps dropping in May. “
Even though the expansion is delayed, it looks like Bungie is trying to give new quests and content to keep players engaged as they wait for the next update to hit for the story. The most recent expansion has been a sour taste for longtime fans of Destiny 2, so lets hope they are looking at player feedback and the reception of that expansion overall.
Destiny 2 will release its next expansion The Final Shape June 2024 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S|X.
