Destiny 2: The Witch Queen Launches Next Year

It’s here, the moment many have been waiting for. As fans have completed what Beyond Light has to offer and tackled many of the game’s various seasons, the team is finally ready to show what’s coming next for Destiny 2, and if you’re a long-running fan of the series, this next expansion is major for the story. Over the years, Guardians have taken down the mighty Crota, the legendary Oryx, and many other hive adversaries. And now, the Witch Queen Savathun has come for her revenge. The Witch Queen expansion for Destiny 2 launches on February 22, 2022 (or 2/22/22, if you will). You can find the trailer for the new expansion below.

The official Bungie page for The Witch Queen reads as follows:

Sister of Shapes, Sword-Breaker, Witch Queen – which of my many names lives on your lips as you weave your story around me? Even as you tread carefully through my courtyard, among those who worship the Light I have gifted, would you deny me the virtue of this power?

Your answers are telling, Guardian. Ponder them and question those who promise you clarity in the face of all you see here. Listen as their voice wavers. And as you lift your new steel from the heart of your forge, ask yourself, ‘What force wields you?'”

That’s not all though, as the Destiny 2: The Witch Queen showcase also revealed a new gameplay trailer showcasing some of the new toys guardians will play with. Displaying some beautiful environments from Hive fortresses to luscious swamps, there’s plenty of unique locations to explore. I won’t spoil things any further though, and will let you see the trailer for yourself below.
