An update from Bungie with Next Gen info coming on December 8th, with exception to faster loading and cross-gen play that come straight away. Full Bungie info below:

 

The stars have aligned, and the next generation of console gameplay begins in the launch window for Beyond Light. As we continue to improve Destiny 2, we’re taking the opportunity to optimize the experience you’ll have on this new hardware. 
 
The next generation optimized version of Destiny 2 will launch on December 8. While things like faster load times and cross-generation play will be available on November 10, we’re taking some more time on the following enhancements to ensure a smooth experience when playing Destiny 2 on your new devices. 
 
Feature Xbox Series X PlayStation 5 Xbox Series S
Resolution 4K 4K 1080p
Framerate 60fps 60fps 60fps
Field of View Slider Yes Yes Yes
Faster Load Times Yes Yes Yes
Cross-Generation Play Yes Yes Yes
Next-Generation Upgrade Free Xbox Smart Delivery Yes Xbox Smart Delivery
Other notes: 
 
  • We are offering Field of View customization on consoles for the first time. Our goal is to enable a FOV range similar to that on PC. We’re currently testing these settings to ensure smooth performance across each platform and will have additional details closer to launch. 
  • There will be noticeable improvements to things like loading the game and inspecting character inventory. However, some load times are dependent on networking and matchmaking. So, loading activities still takes time while you search for opponents. 
  • For cross-generation play, Xbox Series X|S players can play with Xbox One players. PlayStation 5 players can play with PlayStation 4 players. 
 
We’re excited for you to experience these enhancements for yourself and we’ll share more next generation details in the future.

Cross platform would be good as well

 

In theory yes, but only if you could turn PvP matchmaking with PC players. I don't think i'd want to come up against people on a PC when on console, especially with the latest cheating and hacking that was found in Trials.

 

I can't wait to see 60FPS but now with the FOV slider too, it'll look a brand new game on console. (yes, appreciate its been on PC for a while, just the playerbase hasn't)

 

Little things we take for granted but just waiting for traffic to pass as we fly to the Tower and dismantling things extremely quickly will be huge improvements to the parts that just take up far too much time.
