What can be seen in the Forsaken launch trailer?
The trailer begins with a reflection on Cayde’s death. The Vanguard mourns what has happened. The atmosphere is bleak and filled with sorrow. We also learn Cayde’s last words. He asks Uldren Sov: “How is your sister?” Mara Sov, the Queen of the Awoken, has been missing for two years.
Then we see Uldren speaking to the Barons – they are to spread chaos.
Revenge for Cayde-6: Ikora and Zavala discuss revenge for Cayde-6. Zavala emphasizes that they do not have an army at their disposal, but Ikora insists on avenging Cayde.
Then the Guardian speaks (that’s us) – who has so far remained silent in Destiny 2: “Uldren Sov is mine.” By the way, this is the top topic in the comments under the video. People are excited that their character finally gets a voice.
We still see that Uldren wants to seize the Light; he seeks the shard of the Traveler. And finally, there is the announcement that the Guardians are to storm the Reef. All. Every Titan, every Warlock, every Hunter.
Will the Queen return? By the way, during the trailer, an Awoken can be seen, who is Petra Venj, hunting alongside the Guardian. Moreover, at 2:07, an Awoken can be seen stroking Uldren’s shoulder. Could this be the Queen?Update: Shortly after the launch trailer, Bungie started a strange lore event surrounding Cayde-6.
What is Destiny 2 Forsaken about?
According to Bungie, Forsaken will be the largest Destiny expansion yet. In addition to new game modes, new enemies, and fresh loot, the story continues to follow the Guardians, leading them this time into the Reef and the endgame zone “Dreaming City”.
Bungie already revealed in previous trailers the death of an important character in Forsaken: the death of Cayde-6. Your task will now be to avenge Cayde-6. The embedded launch trailer should already put you in the right mood for it.
Here is the launch trailer in the original English:
The Forsaken expansion will be released on September 4, 2018, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Already today, on August 28th, in the evening hours, Update 2.0.0 will be deployed, which already introduces some new features and prepares for the Forsaken release.
Since Update 2.0.0 is associated with several hours of maintenance, you will have plenty of time tonight to watch the launch trailer over and over again. Enjoy!
