Warlord's Ruin - New Dungeon Release Date

A new Year-6 dungeon called Warlord's Ruin will release during Season of the Wish on December 1, 2023 at 9 AM PST. This is included with the Lightfall Dungeon Key!

Seasonal Activity: Riven's Lair

Taking place in a spawling underworld beneath the Dreaming City, this new 3-player activity sees you avoiding traps and defeating powerful enemies in order to retrieve the last of Riven's uncorrupted eggs, with Riven granting the Fifteenth Wish in return.

Destiny x The Witcher Collab

A new collection of items are available in-game that are inspired by the world of The Witcher, and the adventures of Geralt of Rivia. With a new armor set for each class, you'll be sure to look fit for monster-killing!

  • Hunter - White Wolf
  • Warlock - Hexer
  • Titan - Kaer Morhen

Not only that, but players can acquire the new Wolven Storm ship and a VGH Sparrow inspired by Geralt's trusty steed, Roach; you'll note the thruster effect looks just like the Igni sign! A Wolf School skin for the Ghost is also available, and the iconic bath scene from The Witcher 3 is replicated via the "Tub Time" emote.

All of the above items are available in Destiny 2's Eververse store.

Dragon's Breath Exotic Returns

The Dragon's Breath Exotic Rocket Launcher has returned! Look for it on the Season of the Wish Seasonal reward track, with some new updates:

Burn the World (Exotic Intrinsic)
  • The fuel counter passively increases the longer you go without firing it, to a maximum of x5. Firing Dragon’s Breath then empties this counter, transferring all fuel to the rocket.
  • Rockets then embed themselves in struck targets causing Scorch damage and periodically ejecting incendiary fuel into pools around the target that inflict Scorch damage to anyone standing in them. The more fuel a rocket is fired with, the longer it lasts before detonating and the more fire it spreads.
High Octane (Exotic Intrinsic)
  • With this Intrinsic, nearby ignitions instantly refill your Dragon’s Breath with 2 fuel. Plus, when its fuel fully refills, it reloads itself
  • Once you’ve got this thing in hand, make sure to pay a visit to the Gunsmith in the Tower so you can get the quest for the Exotic catalyst.
Pyromancer (Exotic Catalyst)
  • This catalyst passively replenishes your Dragon Breath’s fuel faster. Eliminating combatants with this weapon causes them to spawn Firesprites, too.

New Artifact - Queensfoil Censer

The Queensfoil Censer is the Seasonal Artifact this time around, containing Unstoppable Bows and Overload Rocket Launchers amongst other Artifact Perks.

New Legendary Weapons

6 new Legendary weapons are available with the launch of this Season:

  • Supercluster – Slug Shotgun - Strand

  • Lethophobia – Lightweight Bow - Void
  • Doomed Petitioner – Linear Fusion Rifle - Void

The Dreaming City weapons you can get from the Blind Well, the Shattered Throne, and the Ascendant Challenge chests are also returning with thematic updates. They are as follows:

  • Vouchsafe - Lightweight Scout - Void
