Destiny 2 Star Wars collab explained: What to expect from the Heresy update

Now, nearly eight years since its debut, a fresh partnership may potentially broaden the scope of Destiny’s dedicated followers.

Collaboration between Bungie’s developers and Lucasfilm Games means exciting Star Wars-themed content will be arriving in Destiny 2 shortly.

Enthusiasts of both realms are likely thrilled, yet the specifics of this collaboration remain unclear. Can you provide more details about what to expect, and when will it be released?

We’ll share all the sci-fi-drenched info down below.

When is the Destiny 2 Star Wars collab?

Destiny 2 Star Wars collab will release on 4th February, so we’re less than a week away!

The fourth installment will become available simultaneously with Heresy (the game’s third episode and the conclusion of Light and Darkness series). Therefore, you can expect an abundance of new content on it.

In this new partnership, we’ll be unveiling decorative pieces, armor, add-ons, victory poses, and emoticons, all reminiscent of the Star Wars galaxy.

What else is coming in Destiny 2’s Heresy update?

Perhaps the biggest news is that the Dreadnaught has returned.

At last, we can discover the fate of the Dreadnaught following Oryx’s demise, when its corridors began to decay due to lack of guidance from a Navigator.

In addition, a fresh activity titled “The Nether” is introduced, where players are tasked with disarming the armaments aboard the Dreadnought.

According to Stevens, the wave of corruption acts as a bitter undercurrent resisting the efforts of Guardians trying to enter the Dreadnaught. This is where The Nether becomes relevant.
