This week on Tower Casuals: The Destiny Podcast, the Boys celebrate a new era for Bungie.

⁠Corey Dirrig⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Josh Finney⁠⁠ raise a glass as Pete Parsons announced via social media and the Bungie website that he’s stepping down as CEO, with longtime designer Justin Truman stepping in as the studio’s new head.

They also dive into upcoming changes to the Destiny 2 Portal, questionable sandbox adjustments, the return of the Plaguelands in the Ash and Iron Update, and why SIVA isn’t the next subclass… again.

Plus, they debate loadout swapping and why removing it from challenge modes makes certain raid and dungeon encounters nearly impossible to complete.

The Edge of Fate promises one of Destiny 2’s biggest shake-ups yet, being Destiny 3 in all but name. That means the expansion is bringing fresh gear systems, new mods, and major endgame rewards. Let's dive in.

This week on Tower Casuals, Josh Finney and Corey Dirrig talk through all the big Destiny 2 news as we get closer to the launch of The Edge of Fate on July 15. Bungie hosted a developer stream, shared a new Rite of the Nine challenge, and announced the hosts for the upcoming World First Raid Race. With Bungie Day and GCX coming soon too, there’s a lot happening in the Destiny world, and Josh and Corey break it all down.

One of the biggest changes is the new five-tier gear system. Each tier adds more perks, better stats, and cool visual effects, like blue flame combat flair on Tier 5 weapons. This makes it easier for players to see how valuable a piece of gear really is. Whether you’re chasing the best builds or just want to look awesome, the new system gives more reasons to keep playing and upgrading.

They also talk about new seasonal mods that can be used on more weapons. These mods let you do things like deal extra damage to certain enemies or cause explosions after building up charges. It’s a big boost for buildcrafting and adds more ways to play and customize your loadout.

Finally, Josh and Corey touch on some economy and power level updates, as well as the return of open access for Destiny 2, making it easier for new players to jump in. With so many changes and events coming, The Edge of Fate is shaping up to be a huge moment for the game—and fans have a lot to look forward to.
