Destiny 2: The Final Shape Raid Goes Live on June 7th

Power has inspired much discussion in the Destiny 2 community, and with Bungie experimenting more with not raising the Power limit, many believed The Final Shape would remove it. Instead, the development team is taking several steps to allow more easily playing with friends, regardless of their Power.

Among its most unpopular decisions with Destiny 2, Bungie made two exceptionally annoying ones – vaulting previously released content, like The Red War, Curse of Osiris and Warmind campaigns, and capping Power on Legendary gear. It would slightly alter course on the latter, ensuring that Legendaries released after a point didn’t suffer the same issue. However, in The Final Shape, it’s completely reversing the decision.

If The Witness wasn’t enough for Guardians in Destiny 2: The Final Shape, they must contend with the new Dread faction. Wielding the powers of Darkness, they create havoc and keep the player off-balance, as seen with the Harbinger, Weaver, Husk and Geist. Two new teasers highlight the remaining members – the Omen, Attendant and Grim.

We all knew this was coming. Destiny 2: The Final Shape will make sweeping changes to the MMO's overly complicated Power system, streamlining the grind and making it easier to play with friends. The kicker is that all "legacy" items – you know, the ones that were sunset years ago – are coming back. Except they're also not, because most players already deleted them after they were sunset, and developer Bungie admits "we have no recovery mechanism." 

A lot of changes are coming to the Power system of Destiny 2 when The Final Shape expansion makes it debut on June 4. While Destiny 2's Fireteam Power feature was initially announced back in August during the Destiny 2 Showcase 2023, the developers are now announcing updated changes as to how the feature will allow its players more interaction with their friends in the upcoming expansion.

Destiny 2: The Final Shape is fast approaching, and we’ve reached the point where every weekly blog post has some bombshell to shake up the community. But on Thursday, Bungie dropped some of the biggest news that veteran players have ever seen: Destiny 2’s weapons are getting un-sunset.

After showcasing what the Harbinger and Weaver are capable of inDestiny 2’s The Final Shape, Bungie has a new teaser dedicated to the Husk. As a melee combatant of The Witness’s Dread faction, it rushes players with bladed tonfa. Check it out below.

With Destiny 2: The Final Shape, players will tackle familiar foes inside the Pale Heart of the Traveler en route to fighting The Witness. However, they also have to tackle the Dread, a race of Rhulk-like beings loyal to the latter. Check out the brief trailer below, which highlights two types of Dread: the Harbinger and the Weaver.

Bungie has released a new trailer for Destiny 2: The Final Shape.

A new trailer is available for Bungie’s Destiny 2: The Final Shape, with the returning Cayde-6 (voiced by Nathan Fillion), outlining his experience waking up inside the Traveler. Far from the afterlife, the former Hunter Vanguard recognizes that The Witness is infecting it and consuming it from within.

While Destiny 2’s free Into the Light update has received positive feedback from fans, there have been concerns over how long the content will remain. Onslaught will shift to the Vanguard Ops playlist once The Final Shape launches, but what about everything else?

The Final Shape raid, the long-awaited event for Destiny 2, will finally be launched during the first week of June. This upcoming raid is one of the biggest moments in the history of Destiny 2, and there's now a clear time frame to look forward to.
