Destiny 2: Revenant Content Showcased in Developer Livestream
Today, Destiny 2 developers hosted a livestream to preview upcoming content releasing for Act I of Destiny 2: Revenant, launching October 9 AEDT/NZDT. During the stream, the team gave an in-depth look at new features including tonic brewing, Onslaught: Salvation, new weapons and Artifact perks, and several other additions. Developers also teased what players can expect from Revenant’s story and the return of some major figures in the Destiny universe. Watch the recorded livestream here to prepare for next week’s launch.
The team also provided comprehensive details on Codename: Frontiers, Destiny 2’s new content model slated for 2025. This model introduces two medium-sized expansions per year and four major free updates, focusing on non-linear storytelling, systemic innovation, and enhanced core game activities. The size of the expansions will be comparable to Destiny: Rise of Iron released in 2016. These new expansions will deliver meaningful narrative impacts to the overarching story within Destiny 2, and, in addition to other updates, will introduce significant changes to armour, including new stat ranges and set bonuses to enhance value and build-crafting options. Here is a developer deep dive blog on next gen armour in Destiny 2.
Destiny 2: Revenant launches on Wednesday, October 9 AEDT/NZDT, with the new dungeon, Vesper’s Host, launching on Saturday, October 12 AEDT/NZDT alongside Destiny 2’s first-ever Dungeon Race with partners Twitch Rivals. Tune into the Twitch Rivals Dungeon Race stream here on Saturday, October 12 at 4:00 AM AEDT/6:00 AM NZDT.
