New Destiny 2 Concept Art Sheds Just A Little Light On Upcoming Expansion
We still have very few concrete details about Destiny 2’s next expansion, Codename: Apollo, but Bungie has provided some new, if vague, looks at what we can expect with concept art and a list of inspirations that include The Doors, Slaughterhouse Five, and Scavenger’s Reign.
Bungie talked a bit about Codename: Frontiers, the next phase of Destiny 2’s content that’ll kick off in Summer 2025, on a recent developer livestream that also covered Episode: Revenant, which starts on October 8. Narrative director Alison Luhrs showed new concept art for the expansion’s destination and provided some cryptic details about what players can expect as Destiny 2 moves into a new story.
The next year of Bungie content, which will start after the last of its current episodes, Heresy, ends in early 2025, will include two major expansions instead of one huge tentpole release, as has been the case throughout Destiny 2’s life. These expansions are smaller and will come at a more regular cadence, Bungie says, and be about the size of the original Destiny’s Rise of Iron expansion. The first, Codename: Apollo, will have a nonlinear campaign structure, Bungie says, with a metroidvania gameplay approach, allowing players to choose their path through the content as they unlock new abilities.
