In just under 2 weeks, Season 10 of Destiny 2 will begin, along with the return of Trials. There are also first official details from Bungie. We summarize what facts and rumors say so far.
At Destiny 2, the current Season 9, the Season of Dawn, is slowly coming to an end. Many are already looking forward to the upcoming Season 10. Bungie is slowly breaking the silence, but many concrete details about the new season are still lacking even with 2 weeks to go before its start.
Nevertheless, some information about the new Season 10 has already leaked – whether through leaks or official channels. We now summarize this compactly for you.
Everything you need to know about Destiny 2 Season 10
When does Season 10 start? Bungie has not yet revealed an official start date. However, Season 9 is set to end on March 9.
This is somewhat unusual at first, as it is a Monday, while new content such as seasons or expansions typically launch on Tuesdays with the weekly reset.
However, it is assumed that this is the last full day of Season 9 and that Season 10 will normally start with the Weekly Reset on Tuesday, March 10, at 6:00 PM German time – meaning there will be a smooth transition as has been customary in previous seasons.
What is the name of Season 10? The next season will be called: Season of the Worthy. This confirms the findings of data miners from recent weeks.
Thanks to Ginsor, a well-respected and reliable data miner, we have known the now-confirmed name for some time:
What contents does Season 10 offer?
What about the Season Pass? There will also be a new Season Pass with a kind of Battle Pass system for Season 10 – this is already considered certain. The pass is expected to offer a variety of new, themed rewards (more for buyers) like new weapon exotics, exotic engrams, special armor ornaments, as well as additional cosmetics and resources.
If you want to fully enjoy Season 10, you will probably have to purchase the corresponding Season Pass. However, even non-buyers can earn some rewards for free – just not at every tier.
The pass will again cost about 10€ when purchased individually through Eververse. By the way, if you own the Digital Deluxe version of Shadowkeep, you do not need to purchase Season 10 separately. All new seasons of Year 3 are included up to and including Season 11. However, this version of the Shadowkeep expansion is no longer available for purchase.
What can Guardians expect in PvE? Nothing has been revealed yet about the scope or the specific contents of the new season. Whether the hopes of many Guardians for a new raid will be fulfilled remains to be seen.
However, it is suspected that the story surrounding Warlock Osiris and War Mind Rasputin from Season 9 could be picked up and continued. The latest information also suggests a renewed focus on the War Mind.
A new cutscene recently sparked an unexpected development at the end of Season 9. Since the seasons are supposed to connect story-wise, many are now curious about how it all continues.
Destiny 2: New cutscene celebrated, but also heatedly discussed
What can Guardians expect in PvP? It’s finally official – the Trials are returning with Season 10. Trials of Osiris will commence on March 13. So you can start as early as the first weekend of the new season.
This is a popular PvP format for Crucible enthusiasts that has helped many through content droughts in Destiny 1. However, the Trials flopped in Destiny 2 and were temporarily removed from the game for overhauling in August 2018.
Finally, Bungie announced some time ago that they want to focus more on PvP in the future. And when would be a better and more appropriate time than the return of what is arguably the most popular PvP format?
Three popular “Destiny 1” maps will return along with the Trials:
- Exodus Blue
- Cauldron
- Anomaly
The whole Season 9 was speculated: During Season 9, more and more details were revealed through the in-game event “Empyrean Foundation” and data mining, which indicate a real return of the Trials.
It seems like the Guardians are already working actively on the return of the Trials in Season 9. You can find out more about it here:
- Destiny 2: Guardians stumble upon secret mission – Will it bring us the Trials back?
- Destiny 2: Return of the long-awaited Trials leaked, but the big cheer is missing – Why?
