Bungie has unveiled Destiny 2’s next big leap: The Edge of Fate, launching July 15 as the first expansion in the Year of Prophecy. From a new destination to major core system changes, here’s everything you need to know to prepare for the upcoming saga—and how LFCarry can help you jump in fast.
- Rite of the Nine Boost
The Rite of the Nine is an exclusive event in Destiny 2 that revitalizes three iconic dungeons: Prophecy, Spire of the Watcher, and Ghosts of the Deep.
- Rite of the Nine Contest Bundle
Take on the ultimate challenge with our Rite of the Nine Contest Bundle, designed for Guardians aiming to conquer all three dungeons.
🧭 The Year of Prophecy Roadmap: A New Seasonal Model
Table of Contents
Starting this July, Destiny 2 adopts a new content structure:
- 2 Expansions: The Edge of Fate (July 15), Renegades (Dec 2)

- All players get access to core updates and major activities—no seasonal paywalls.
- New additions include Exotic missions, destination gear, and evolving world stories.
🌌 Lore Hook: Orin and the Nine
Orin, once an emissary of the Nine, resurfaces just as Kepler’s dark matter awakens. With the Nine stepping back into the light, Guardians must navigate a growing fracture in cosmic balance—one shaped by forgotten gods and powers older than the Traveler.
🌌 Kepler Awaits: Explore a Mysterious New Destination
The Edge of Fate introduces Kepler, a dark matter-infused world built for exploration and mystery. Its layout is inspired by Destiny 2’s dungeons—with puzzle-driven paths, traversal challenges, and hidden rewards.
New Abilities:
- 🧠 Matterspark: Morph your Guardian into a dark-matter form to slip through crevices and dash across terrain.
- 🌀 Relocator Cannon: Teleport with Fallen-inspired tech.
- 🌿Mattermorph: Shape the environment using dark matter + Strand fusion.
⚙️ Armor 3.0 & Gear Tiering: New Build Depth
Bungie is overhauling gear systems to encourage deeper customization:
🔹 Armor 3.0:
- Full energy on drop.
- New stats (e.g., weapon damage boost).
- Set bonuses for equipping matching pieces.
🔹 Tiered Gear (1–5):
- Higher tiers = better stats, exclusive perks.
- T5 gear tied to Destiny’s toughest content.
And yes, there’s a live-fire testing range launching 3 weeks after July 15.
🌀 The Portal: A Smarter, Faster Playlist Selector
A new core feature called The Portal offers curated access to all game activities, with four categories:
- Fireteam Ops: Cooperative action
- Pinnacle Ops: Endgame challenges
- Crucible Ops: PvP-focused content
- Solo Ops: 10-minute single-player runs
Customize your experience with 50 new modifiers and target the rewards you want.
