Season of the Risen

The Witch Queen has stolen the Light. Her Hive army charges across the battlefield, gnashing at your armor before succumbing to the power of your fireteam. The Ghosts of your vanquished foes hover silently, an ominous portent of a battle with no end. In a matter of moments too short to catch your breath, the horde rises before you and charges again. 
Eyes up, Guardian.

PS4 players are unable to pre-load Destiny 2: The Witch Queen as launch draws near

Only a few hours before the launch of the latest Destiny 2 expansion, PS4 players have been informed that they’re unable to pre-load the game due to “an unforeseen issue”. This means that those using that console and with hopes of jumping into The Witch Queen as soon as possible on launch day will be a step behind their peers on Xbox, PC, the PS5, and Stadia.

The sudden revelation of bad news came directly from the Bungie Help Twitter account (embedded below), which provided an update on the situation just over twelve hours before the Destiny 2 servers go live once again. PS4 players will now have to download the update at 9AM PST / 12PM EST / 6PM GMT while everyone else is enjoying the new content.

This is obviously a blow for the PS4 player base, whose launch day experience will be facing a considerable delay as they’ll need to download a sizable update from the get go. While the rest of the community of course feels sorry for this portion of Guardians left out in the cold, light-hearted hopes that this may lessen launch day queues can be found both on the Destiny 2 Reddit and below the announcement tweet.

Destiny 2's latest bug was caused by a ship that Bungie can't stop spawning in a rock




Destiny 2 is gearing up for the climax of its Season of the Lost, which has been gradually rolling out in the runup to The Witch Queen. The reception to it so far seems pretty positive, except there is one glitch that is (or I should say was) annoying a lot of players: after completing a step in a mission called Exorcism, Guardians were discovering that the game would often progress for the Fireteam leader, but not the rest of the Fireteam...

How to prepare for Destiny 2: The Witch Queen




We're less than a week away from Destiny 2: The Witch Queen's launch. Arriving on Tuesday, February 22, Destiny 2's next expansion will take players to Hive god Savathûn's Throne World, to face off against her Lucent Brood. But as Bungie gives, it also takes away, and that means many of Beyond Light's seasonal activities are being taken away—along with the Tangled Shore and the Forsaken campaign...
