This is a great opportunity for players to experience all the amazing content that Destiny 2 has to offer without any additional cost. To give an overview of everything that fans can expect from these expansions; the expansions include three engaging story campaigns, the new Stasis subclass introduced in Beyond Light, a wide range of exotic and legendary weapons, armor, cosmetics, and other exciting features.

Experience Four Destiny 2 Year 6 Seasons For Free

In addition to the three expansions, Destiny 2 players will also get to play four seasons released during the year of Lightfall (Year 6) completely for free. These four seasons include Season of Defiance, Season of the Deep, Season of the Witch, and Season of the Wish.

The best part is that any items you unlock during the free trial will remain yours even after the trial period ends. “All Guardians who play through these expansions and Seasons will be able to keep their earned weapons and gear,” stated Bungie.

“In addition to the expansions, all Seasonal content from Destiny Year 6 is available to all players through June 3, which includes: Season of Defiance, Season of the Deep, Season of the Witch, and Season of the Wish.”

And if you’re wondering why Lightfall wasn’t part of this list, it’s because the expansion is available for free as part of May 2024 titles for PlayStation Plus. This means that if you’re a PlayStation Plus member, you’ll have access to the last four expansions (Shadowkeep, Beyond Light, The Witch Queen, and Lightfall) without any extra charges.

Apart from that, Bungie has also made some significant updates to lower the barrier of entry for new players in the Final Shape. We have compiled a list of 25 major updates and features set to release in early June which you can check out here.

Destiny 2 The Final Shape is set to launch on Tuesday, June 4, 2024, on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
