Bungie has set the date for when Destiny 2 players will learn more about its plans for the looter shooter for the remainder of 2025 and beyond.
Following the release of The Final Shape in June 2024, three Episodes – Echoes, Revenant, and Heresy – have filled the space between major, expansion-sized updates.
Until now, the only known information has been that Destiny 2’s next big content update was codenamed Frontiers and would be split into two expansions, Apollo and Behemoth.
As of Bungie’s April 15 X/Twitter post, however, we now have a more concrete name – The Edge of Fate – and a definitive date for when Guardians will know more about their next grand adventure.
The Edge of Fate reveal event date
Bungie’s reveal event for Destiny 2 The Edge of Fate takes place on May 6. This is the same date Episode Heresy’s Rite of the Nine event will go live and, considering the iconography present in The Edge of Fate teaser, it’s likely the two are connected in some way.
Does The Edge of Fate have a release date?
No, there’s currently no release date for Edge of Fate. With that said, Episode Heresy’s end date has previously been recorded as July 15, 2025, indicating that the expansion won’t arrive until summer at the earliest.
Traditionally, Bungie has ensured that seasons and expansions lead into each other with no downtime, but there’s no guarantee that the same scenario will be true here.
Who are the Nine?
The short answer is nobody knows who, or what, the Nine are, however, the group have been referenced repeatedly as far back as the original Destiny. Xur, a vendor associated with Exotic wares, is known to be an associate of the collective, which operates out of Unknown Space.
Likewise, Trials of the Nine, a retired PvP event from vanilla Destiny 2, featured the Emissary, an Awoken with ties to the mysterious faction. How does this all tie into The Edge of Fate, you ask? Well, the expansion’s logo features symbols directly associated with the Nine.
Are Frontiers and The Edge of Fate the same?
As of writing, it’s not known with certainty if The Edge of Fate and Frontiers are one and the same. The likeliest scenario here is that the former is the official name of Apollo – a codename for one half of what Frontiers encompasses.
We’ll know for sure either way following Bungie’s May 6 reveal event. You can find more information on everything we know about Frontiers in our roadmap breakdown.
