Currently, the community is working hard on Destiny 2 to solve a new massive puzzle – the quest “Exploration of the Corridors of Time.” But it seems like the Guardians will have to work on it for a while longer.
What is currently happening in Destiny 2? Since the Weekly Reset on January 14, many players have been diligently working on solving a quest called “Exploration of the Corridors of Time,” which brings a huge new puzzle.
As with many puzzles before, the Destiny community is currently coming together again. Many players, streamers, and Destiny experts are actively working together to solve the puzzle in a mysterious labyrinth of time and reach a mysterious tomb.

What is the current status of the new mega-puzzle? The community has already made the first major step yesterday, on January 15. This involved walking through a labyrinth in the correct order to unlock a total of 19 different symbol codes.
This revealed further symbol combinations in the time-warped vault, the final room of the labyrinth, from which the Guardians have put together a sort of large labyrinth map.
But now the community just can’t seem to move forward. They still can’t reach the tomb in the middle of the last room. A lot has been tried; various patterns and symbol sequences have been walked through on the map. But no further progress has been made.
This is what Bungie says: While some involved Guardians have already despaired, many, such as professional player Gladd, continued diligently until late into the night yesterday.
However, Bungie then spoke up. In a tweet, it said: “Broken into many pieces, the Corridors of Time must be reassembled. The solution is a marathon, not a sprint.”
Later, the community manager dmg04 also spoke up on Twitter. There he urged Gladd’s chat to spam “Go to bed” so that the visibly exhausted streamer would finally set the puzzle aside and get some sleep.
What does this mean for the puzzle? Even though many Guardians are still working on a solution in various sub-Reddits, streams, and social media – it seems there will be no quick solution for this puzzle, especially since it is like a marathon and they are trying to send people to bed.
Some therefore suspect that further progress may be tied to a time lock or that more patterns or hints may emerge over the days through which the puzzle could continue or be solved. But according to Bungie, there will be no time gate. It seems it will simply take an incredibly long time to gather all the necessary data and patterns.
By the way: That this puzzle is as complex once again as it was with the Niobe Labs is considered unlikely. In the Niobe Lab, the complex puzzle proved to be too difficult, and Bungie also caused some confusion with the solution. Eventually, the studio simply made the Bergusia Forge, which was tied to the progress of the puzzle, available to everyone.
What do you think? How will the puzzle continue? Are you actively participating in the solution, watching it casually, or do such contents leave you cold?
