At a special Destiny showcase, developer and publisher Bungie shared more on the future of Destiny 2.
Bungie revealed the first trailer for Destiny 2: Lightfall on Tuesday, giving a look at what is being referred to as “the beginning of the end” as Guardians fight the Shadow Legion. You can check out the reveal trailer for Destiny 2: Lightfall below:
Destiny 2: Lightfall is set primarily around the planet Neptune, with the hidden city of Neomuna as a new major location. The entire expansion is themed around vibrant colors, which is quite the juxtaposition against the high stakes the Guardians find themselves in.
There’s some major new gameplay additions, including a grappling hook that’s available for every class. A group finder feature is also coming at some point in 2023, making it easier to find people to play with for particular activities, aiding in reducing an annoyance that Destiny players are all-too-familiar with.
Destiny 2: Lightfall has a release date of Feb. 28, 2023, meaning it’s scheduled to arrive almost exactly a year after Destiny 2: The Witch Queen, the most recent expansion for the game.
