Find information on the two expansions in Destiny 2. Guardians will have some form of involvement with Osiris.
The story in Destiny 2 is said to be “great”, “fresh”, and “inviting”, at least according to Bungie and Activision. However, we do not yet know many details about it. We know that the Last City will be destroyed by an invasion of the Cabal Legion, commanded by Ghaul. Ghaul will likely be the big boss to be defeated at the end, which is what the story is leading to.
To eliminate Ghaul, Guardians will be sent to mysterious and unknown worlds of the Solar System to reunite the scattered heroes of humanity. Together, they are to reclaim their home.
These “scattered heroes of humanity” leave much room for speculation – and for story content. Bungie may be bringing back some of the story-related content and lore that players missed in Destiny 1. Perhaps Guardians will finally get to know the characters they have only known by name until now. One example: Osiris.
Expansion I and II – Content from the expansion pass points to Osiris
The expansion pass for Destiny 2 costs 30 euros and includes expansions I and II. It is officially known that these expansions will feature new story missions, cooperative activities, a multiplayer mode, and new weapons, armor pieces, and other items. This graphic was published:
It shows two symbols:
- Under Expansion I is the Osiris symbol. Most Guardians will be familiar with this. You encounter it during the Trials of Osiris.
- Under Expansion II is a symbol associated with Rasputin.
Rasputin is a War Mind in the Cosmodrome, created during the Golden Age. He is the last surviving War Mind.
The Osiris symbol could simply mean that the Trials of Osiris return with the first expansion. After all, the season pass overview states that a multiplayer mode is included. Or Guardians may actually meet Osiris.
Osiris could be one of the ancient heroes that Guardians encounter on their journey through the Solar System. Osiris is an old Warlock who was once part of the Vanguard and was banished by the Speaker from the Last City.
He sought knowledge, the truth about the purpose of the Guardians. He believed in greater truths. He was particularly interested in the Darkness, especially the Hive. However, Osiris wasted important resources that were necessary for securing the last city to chase legends and rumors. For this reason – and because he was possessed by the nature of Darkness – he was banished by the Speaker.
Osiris still has disciples, like Brother Vance. Because he had connections to the Queen in the Reef (and also to the Nine), Brother Vance is located at the Vestian Outpost.
Osiris has dealt with the big questions in the Destiny universe – with Light, with Darkness. Perhaps in Destiny 2, we will delve deep into the backstory!
