Looking for new details about Destiny 2 episode Revenant? You’ve come to the right place!
After the release of The Final Shape expansion, Bungie switched the Destiny 2 seasonal model by introducing “episodes,” each with a more defined narrative, larger content drops, and one-off story beats that are connected like seasonal storylines.
Following the Echoes storyline, which focused on the storyline of Maya Sundaresh, the Vex, and Nessus, players now turn their attention to the upcoming Episode Revenant.
This episode continues Destiny’s evolving world and dives deep into dark fantasy territory, with the return of a beloved character: Fikrul, the Fanatic.
In this article, we will talk about everything you need to know about the Destiny 2 episode Revenant, its release date, end date, artifact perks, new weapons, and armor.

- Pacific Time (PT): 10 AM

Destiny 2 Revenant New Power Level Caps
Bungie has revealed some new details about the power cap changes coming to Destiny 2 Episode Revenant. With this episode, Bungie plans to increase the Power cap by 10. You can find the new Power bands for Revenant below:
- Power Floor: 1900
- Soft Cap: 1950
- Powerful Cap: 2000
- Hard Cap / Pinnacle Cap: 2010
Destiny 2 Revenant: All Acts Release Structure
In Episode Revenant, Bungie has changed the way story content is delivered. Instead of the usual weekly rollout, where new story missions trickle in over time, all story beats for each act (Act 1, Act 2, and Act 3) will be released simultaneously. This means players will get the entire storyline for Act 1 all at once, and the same will happen for Acts 2 and 3 as they are released.
This shift is in direct response to the backlash Bungie faced with the timegating of content in the previous episode, Echoes. Many players felt frustrated by the slow pacing of the story, which limited progression week by week.
Destiny 2 Revenant: Exotic Mission Release Date
Episode Revenant will add a brand-new exotic mission in Destiny 2. However, as of right now, we don’t have any details about what this new exotic mission will be called, or when it will become available in-game.
Rest assured, we will update this section once Bungie shares more details on the release schedule.
Destiny 2 Revenant: Potion Crafting Explained
In Destiny 2 Episode Revenant, players will engage in potion crafting—a new system inspired by fantasy RPGs that will allow them to create their own potions for combat and loot. Here’s how the potion crafting works:
- Combat Potions: These provide a direct boost to your Artifact, offering powerful buffs during combat encounters.
- Loot Potions: These are all about giving players more control over their rewards. Loot potions will let you target your rewards more efficiently.
Destiny 2 Episode Revenant Story
In Episode Revenant, the story revolves around Fikrul, the Fanatic—a character introduced with the Forsaken expansion.
