Updated September 20, 2024: Another week has come for Destiny 2, which means missions, challenges, and rewards have been reset. At this point, Episode: Echoes is hitting the final stretch as the second episode known as Revenant arrives next month with a slew of changes in tow. Fans will likely be pleased to note that Episode: Revenant removes the timegated story content, not only eliminating a major criticism from Echoes, but letting players play at their own pace.
In the meantime, Destiny 2 is also celebrating its 10th anniversary with a small in-game event. Players can head to The Pale Heart to discover a few stashes left behind by Cayde, containing a new armor set inspired by the original armor. In addition to a different look, players have a new set of triumphs available to earn, ultimately leading to the Legend title and seal.
For now though, the Destiny 2 weekly reset is finally here, bringing with it the usual refreshed content, activities, and rewards for players to chase over the next week. For a complete look at all the new content available for the week of September 10, including Nightfalls, Crucible modes, and challenges, here is everything players need to know.
