Currently, many players are considering a return to Destiny 2. Some are thinking about a fresh start and are asking themselves: Should I buy Destiny 2 and the Warmind DLC? To help you with your decision, we answer some important questions. Here’s what you need to know about the Warmind expansion.
I want to return to Destiny 2 with Warmind. But when does it actually start? The Warmind expansion will be released on May 8, 2018, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The preload for buyers and Season Pass holders on all platforms will begin at 4:00 PM on May 8. If the preceding maintenance works go as planned, you can start at 8:00 PM.
I only have the base version of Destiny 2. Do I need to buy the Season Pass now to play the Warmind DLC? No, the Season Pass is not required for the content of the Warmind expansion. However, if you missed the first DLC “Curse of Osiris” and want to experience it along with DLC 2, you can purchase both DLCs at a discount with the Season Pass.
Is the Warmind expansion also available separately? DLC II will be available as a standalone version starting May 8.
The first DLC “Curse of Osiris” is not required for DLC 2? Exactly. You do not need the first DLC if you are only interested in the content of the Warmind expansion.
It’s been a while since I’ve played Destiny 2 or I’m completely new. What is the most important thing I should know if I (re)join? Since the release of Destiny 2, a lot has definitely happened. While many fans were initially very dissatisfied, the game now provides a better experience than at launch – even if substantial changes will come in the fall of 2018 with a big add-on.
Bungie has been attempting to align Destiny 2 more closely with fans’ desires through extensive restructuring since early 2018. Numerous changes have already been implemented. Here are the most important examples:
- Masterwork armor
- Improvement of raid rewards
- Nightfall scoring and high-score tracking
- Exclusive strike-specific rewards
- Massive sandbox adjustments for weapons and Guardian classes
- Weekly rotating PvP playlist, 6vs6 in Iron Banner
- Penalties for quitting early in Crucible matches
The Warmind expansion now marks the next major step towards a better gaming experience. It brings many more changes to the game. In addition to a new story, new loot, and fresh activities, there are among others:
- Seasonal ranking system for the Crucible
- New raid wing
- Private matches
- Masterwork versions of exotic weapons
- Seasonal progress with vendors
- Massive sandbox adjustments for exotic weapons
- Modifiers for heroic strikes
