With Destiny 2’s The Final Shape expansion now here, officially bringing the ten-year Light and Darkness saga to a close, developer Bungie has turned its attention to the future, sharing more on what’s next for its live-service shooter – including a tease of the mysterious Codename: Frontiers, whatever it may be, coming next year.
When Bungie revealed The Final Shape last August, it announced 2024 would bring a significant shake-up to the way Destiny 2 content is delivered. Instead of four yearly Seasons, it said it would release three “larger, content-packed” Episodes, each featuring standalone stories split into three six-week-long Acts.
The first of these, Echoes, launches tomorrow, 11th June, picking up immediately after the events of The Final Shape. It all unfolds on Nessus, where there are ancient secrets to unearth and a mysterious new enemy to encounter. Echoes will then be followed by Revenant later this year (Bungie’s previous roadmap said between July and October), and comes with a vampire-hunting theme as players, in the role of a Slayer Baron, take on the Fallen. There’s also a new potion crafting system – featuring combat and loot potions – alongside the new story elements, quests, and rewards set to feature in all three Episodes.
