Bungie has now revealed all “new” weapons for the upcoming free event “Into the Light” for Destiny 2. 12 guns are waiting for you, including a shader that players have been waiting for years. We will show them to you.
Why are there these rewards? Destiny 2 still has many weeks ahead until the developers release the DLC “The Final Shape”, and to bridge this time, Bungie is bringing the free event “Into the Light”.
The event will bring you a new horde mode, a social space, as well as 12 iconic weapons that you can earn. Bungie wants to apologize for the delay of the DLC and keep players engaged for some time until the DLC is released.
The developers have now revealed all the important rewards of the event in a stream, and alongside 12 iconic weapons from the history of the loot shooter, there is also a legendary shader for stylish guardians.
12 weapons and a legendary shader
What rewards will there be? The developers introduced 12 iconic weapons in their stream that players can earn in “Into the Light”. The following are known:
- Rand-Transit – Void Grenade Launcher from the DLC “Forsaken”
- Midnight Coup – Kinetic Hand Cannon from the Calus raid
- Blast Furnace – Kinetic Pulse Rifle from the Black Armory
- Elsie’s Gun – Arc Pulse Rifle from Destiny 1
- Luna’s Howl – Solar Hand Cannon from Destiny 2
- Succession – Kinetic Sniper from the “Deep Stone Crypt” raid
- Lonely Spider – Void SMG from Destiny 2
- Hammerhead – Void Machine Gun from the “The Last Wish” raid
- Falling Guillotine – Void Sword from Destiny 2
- Innocence – Arc Grenade Launcher from the “Oryx’s Curse” raid
- Disunity SR4 – Kinetic Scout Rifle from Destiny 1 & 2
- The Summit – Kinetic Grenade Launcher from Destiny 2
The interesting thing here is that all weapons will have two versions. A normal version and then a rare limited version with a shader. The rare variant can appear on all 12 weapons, but once the DLC “The Final Shape” has been released, this limited version of the weapons will no longer be obtainable.
What is this legendary shader? While the developers were walking through the new Hall of Guardians, a reward was revealed that players will receive if they really go the extra mile. The reward is a shader, the “Superblack” shader from Destiny 1.
Why is the shader so special, you ask? Because it is completely black. It envelops your guardian in a rich black without any patterns or anything similar. Players have wished for such a shader since the beginning of Destiny 2, but now the time has come. The shader is as it seems, but it is tied to a lot of grinding. Be prepared for that.
What do you think of the weapons and the shader? Will you indulge in these items or would you rather wait until the release of the DLC? Let us know in the comments!
