NEW LAUNCH WINDOW

17h - Destiny Dev Team
Hey everyone,
 
As we get closer and closer to serving up Shadowkeep and New Light, it has become increasingly clear to us that our releases for this Fall would benefit from a bit more time in the oven.
 
Being independent means that the future of Destiny 2 is entirely on our team. It also means that we’re agile enough to choose to do what's best for the game and our players, even if it's the hard choice.
 
We wanted to let you—our Community—know first that we're changing the date for Shadowkeep and New Light from September 17 to October 1.
 
This Fall is the first step on a journey for what our team wants Destiny 2 to become - a place for you and your friends to play anytime, anywhere; owning the action MMO and RPG elements that we love about the game; and crushing barriers to entry for friends. We just need a bit of extra time to take the first step.
 
We didn't make this decision lightly. We know for some of you (us too), Destiny releases are events where you take time off of work or develop a sudden sickness that keeps you from school or work (we get it, a bunch of our team takes some time off to go on their own Destiny Jacket Quest). We're sorry for screwing up your plans and we wanted to share this information as quickly as we could.
 
Here's some more date housecleaning:
  • The World First for the new Raid Garden of Salvation will begin on Saturday, October 5. It’s a weekend Raid race and Contest will be active
  • We’re extending Moments of Triumph through September 17 – you’ll have three more weeks to complete this year’s challenges and unlock all of the in-game and Bungie rewards
  • We’re going to run an additional Iron Banner the week of September 17 as well
  • Cross Save will come online later this Summer, so you’ll have time to sort out your Friend Lists well ahead of Shadowkeep

More to come next week. Thanks for playing and see you soon,
 
Luke & Mark

Good decision to delay for a few more weeks to get it working properly. They've been praised about this across the board and maybe that's the timing as others have screwed up their launches so they get grace for not really getting the release date bang on.

 

 

Also, Crosssave was confirmed on Twitter that it will come in August. Great news.

 

At least we get a little more time too to finish Solstice armour and title seal objectives, along with the Iron Banner armour.
