'Destiny 2' (ALL) Beyond Light Expansion Shows Off New Weapons and Gear - Trailer

Destiny 2 is a first-person action game that takes the player on an epic journey to defend humanity from annihilation.

Humanity’s last safe city has fallen to an overwhelming invasion force, led by Ghaul, the imposing commander of the brutal Red Legion. He has stripped the city’s Guardians of their power, and forced the survivors to flee. You will venture to mysterious, unexplored worlds of our solar system to discover an arsenal of weapons and devastating new combat abilities. To defeat the Red Legion and confront Ghaul, you must reunite humanity’s scattered heroes, stand together, and fight back to reclaim our home.

In Destiny 2, the last safe city on Earth has fallen and lay in ruins, occupied by a powerful new enemy and his elite army, the Red Legion. Every player creates their own character called a "Guardian," humanity's chosen protectors. As a Guardian in Destiny 2, players must master new abilities and weapons to reunite the city's forces, stand together and fight back to reclaim their home.

Mysteries will be revealed, new powers will be discovered, and the true menace of the Pyramid ships will be explored. For months, the mysterious Pyramid ships have been making their way to our solar system, their purpose unknown but their menace clear. A new power is born out of the ancient Pyramid ship above Europa, and a dark empire has risen beneath.

Europa will be a new destination in the upcoming expansion that takes Guardians to the birthplace of the Exos and on the heels of a dark empire that grows in power. Europa is a desolate frozen moon full of buried mysteries. Guardians will seek out lost Golden Age tech deep beneath the moon's icy crust. Europa has stunning vistas and dangerous depths.

Guardians will wield all-new weapons and armor as they trek through the frozen vistas of Europa.

Golden Age tech waits below the ice for those who would seek out the darkness, as does cutting-edge weaponry for any Guardian brave enough to wield it. See what lies in wait for those who hunt the mysteries of Europa as the coming darkness grows:

Exotic Weapons

  • Exotic Pulse Rifle: No Time to Explain*
  • Exotic Sniper Rifle: Cloudstrike
  • Exotic Sword: The Lament
  • Exotic Grenade Launcher: Salvation’s Grip
Exotic Armor
  • Titan Exotic Helmet: Precious Scars
  • Titan Exotic Gauntlets: Icefall Mantle
  • Hunter Exotic Gauntlets: Arthrys’s Embrace
  • Hunter Exotic Helmet: Mask of Bakris
  • Warlock Exotic Helmet: Dawn Chorus
  • Warlock Exotic Gauntlets: Necrotic Grip

And more!

New weapons, armor and accessories will be available to suit every player's style.

In the Destiny 2: Beyond Light expansion, Guardians will explore a changed universe, with a new destination, new adventures, and even new powers to explore.

  • Explore Europa: In Beyond Light, Guardians will be called to a new destination: Jupiter’s frozen moon of Europa. Brave the unrelenting glacial frontier, infiltrate the Golden Age Braytech facility, and uncover the secrets that lie deep under the ancient ice.
  • Wield the Darkness: As a new threat emerges, so too does a mysterious new power – Stasis. Rooted in Darkness, Guardians will wield this new elemental power alongside Arc, Solar, and Void to summon epic supers and control the battlefield. Titans, Warlocks and Hunters will each use Stasis in a different way. More details on Stasis to come later this summer.
  • A New Raid: Below the frozen tundra of Europa lies the Deep Stone Crypt. For decades it has remained dormant. Guardians will test their skill and teamwork in this brand new six-person raid, where glorious rewards await.
  • The Rise of Eramis: The splintered houses of the Fallen have rallied and built their new empire on Europa, united under the banner of the Fallen Kell of Darkness, Eramis. Abandoned by the Traveler and left by the Light, Eramis is on her own journey into the Darkness, and towards a collision course with Guardians.

Destiny 2: Beyond Light arrives on 11 November, allowing Guardians all over the world to embrace the darkness. Xbox fans will want to prepare for their trip to Europa by jumping in with Xbox Game Pass now!
