With the launch of the Season of the Seraph in Destiny 2, Bungie has added a new craftable exotic pulse rifle called Revision Zero that will be available via an exotic quest on December 20, 2022, at the weekly reset.
We did see a glimpse of what this exotic can do in the seasonal trailer. Based on the gameplay in the trailer, it seems like there are two firing modes on this exotic weapon; one that fires as a normal four-round Pulse Rifle, and the other as a two-round long-range Sniper(?).
In this guide, we’ll have everything you need to know about the new Revision Zero exotic in Destiny 2, how to get it, its exotic perk, catalysts, ornaments, etc.
When Is Revision Zero Exotic Releasing in Destiny 2?
The Revision Zero exotic pulse rifle will be released this week on December 20, 2022, after the weekly reset in Destiny 2. Players will be able to unlock this exotic via a new quest called Operation: Seraph’s Shield, which takes place on “a Braytech orbital platform”.
