The Forsaken expansion for Destiny 2 comes in numerous editions. We help you – whether you are a beginner or a returning player – to buy the right edition.
Do you want to dive into Forsaken in Destiny 2 as a beginner or continue your Guardian’s journey with the new autumn add-on as a returner or veteran, but wonder which of the many editions is right for you? With this overview, we want to simplify your choice a bit.
Because the right choice depends not only on personal preferences and additional content of some versions but is also significantly determined by whether and to what extent you already own Destiny 2.
The Forsaken Editions – The Pure Add-on
The pure Forsaken expansion (without the base game) will be available in several versions starting from September 4, 2018. Pre-orders are already possible.
- Destiny 2: Forsaken for €39.99
- Destiny 2: Forsaken + Annual Pass for €69.99
- Destiny 2: Forsaken Digital Deluxe Edition for €79.99
The Digital Deluxe Edition includes the Forsaken expansion, the Annual Pass, and the Awoken Legends set consisting of:
- Ornament for the Legendary Bow “Majestic Wrath”
- Emblem “Paladin’s Lament”
- Vestian Ghost Shell
Who are these editions for? These various editions of the Forsaken add-on are suitable for everyone who already owns Destiny 2 along with all previous content. Both the base game and DLC I “Curse of Osiris” and DLC II “Warmind” are required to play the Forsaken expansion.
If you want to check out Forsaken for yourself and then decide whether to continue or not, the regular version of the add-on is suitable. If you want to secure the additional content of the Annual Pass right away, you should opt for the corresponding edition. If you also want to secure some special in-game items, the Deluxe Edition is likely the right choice.

Destiny 2: Forsaken – Complete Collection
What’s included? The Complete Collection includes the base game, both Year 1 DLCs Curse of Osiris and Warmind, as well as the upcoming Forsaken expansion. Additionally, this edition also includes the Annual Pass, the year pass for the second year of Destiny 2.
A character boost is also included. This boost increases a character of your choice in power level, so you can immediately start with the new Forsaken content.
The price: The Destiny 2: Forsaken – Complete Collection is available for all three platforms for €99.99. Pre-orders are already possible.
Who are these bundles for? These editions are primarily aimed at newcomers who want to join Destiny 2 with Forsaken now. With this bundle, they will receive the complete Destiny 2 experience so far along with the upcoming new Forsaken expansion.
However, these bundles might also be quite interesting for returners and veterans. If you are missing one or both Year 1 DLCs, you now have the opportunity to get everything at a discounted total package. Both DLCs from the first year are required to play Forsaken.
Also, if you own the PS Plus version of Destiny 2, these bundles are recommended if you enjoyed the base game and want to continue your Guardian’s journey. While you essentially buy the base game again here, all the other included contents are mandatory if you want to continue with Forsaken. Only the Annual Pass is optional.
An alternative in this case would be to buy the Destiny 2 Expansion Pass for the first year (includes DLC I+II) for €19.99 (currently €17.99 on sale) along with one of the three Forsaken editions.
Destiny 2 Forsaken GameStop Bundle – Physical Collector’s Edition
What’s included? The exclusive GameStop Forsaken pre-order bundle includes a physical copy of the Destiny 2: Forsaken Legendary Collection, the “Cayde’s Last Stand” statue, and an “Earth” Velcro patch.
The Legendary Collection includes the base game, both Year 1 DLCs Curse of Osiris and Warmind, as well as the upcoming Forsaken expansion.
Additionally, a character boost is included. This boost increases the level of a character of your choice, allowing you to start immediately with the new Forsaken content.
For pre-order customers, there is a package “Cayde’s Exotic Hideout” included in the pre-order.
The price: The exclusive GameStop Forsaken pre-order bundle has only been spotted at GameStop US, where it is priced at $99.99. It is not yet known if this offer will also be available in GameStop locations outside the USA.
The statue “Cayde’s Last Stand” is also expected to be available separately at a price of $49.99.
Who is this edition for? This offer is aimed at passionate collectors. In addition to the complete Destiny 2 experience, you can also secure a special box and a statue of the Vanguard leader Cayde-6.
Annual Pass – Optional Annual Pass for Destiny 2
