What is coming in Destiny 2: Beyond Light?

We learned a lot about what is coming this fall in Destiny 2: Beyond Light. The first big reveal is that the Exo Stranger [aka Elsie Bray] is coming back into the world of Destiny. It’s been years since we’ve seen or heard any trace of her and the kicker is that we learned she is not forged in light and instead of a ghost the Exo Stranger’s familiar is a flying jellyfish type creature.

The story will be taking place on Europa where we find another pyramid ship. From what we can tell the Fallen have taken over and a new Fallen leader has risen up named Eremis who claims they are the Kell of Darkness.

Another big reveal was a new subclass called stasis that looks like it involves ice powers with all the ice shards that are in the trailer. We also learned that stasis is not a subclass forged from the power of the light. Instead, we will be wielding darkness as a power for the first time.

The endgame for this new expansion is a raid on the Deep Stone Crypt that was previously speculated to be on Enceladus.

What is coming in Year 4?

Bungie has two major focuses for year 4. Bungie will be attempting to build out Destiny’s core activities and aspirational content, in addition to, keeping the size of game just over 100GB. Their plan for this is to remove content that is no longer being played and placing it in what they call “The Destiny Content Vault” and replacing it with older content that hasn’t been seen in a long time. This year we know for certain that Bungie is planning on releasing Vault of Glass, the first-ever Destiny raid. There is no mention of what the loot will be but editorializing I’m hoping they are just bringing back old raid gear including the exotics.

What else was announced?

Bungie came out ahead and in addition to Beyond Light, Bungie announced two other expansions following Beyond Light. The first one is Witch Queen releasing in 2021 which heavily implies that we will be facing the long-awaited Savathun. The year after the title of the expansion is Lightfall which could imply any number of things.

Destiny 2: Beyond Light is scheduled to release on September 22nd 2020.
