Forsaken is a highly anticipated upcoming DLC for Bungie’s Destiny 2, there have been quite a few leaks for this DLC but none have been verified or have any weight to them, but this new Destiny 2 Forsaken Leak seems to have some information that even checked out with Bungie’s Blog Post, details below.
Destiny 2 Forsaken Leak
Check out the announcement trailer for the DLC below
From the description
The Reef has fallen to lawlessness, and now the most-wanted criminals in the galaxy – the Barons & Uldren Sov – have organized a jailbreak at the Prison of Elders. You and Cayde-6 have been sent in to bring law and order back to the embattled facility, but things do not go to plan. Facing insurmountable odds, Cayde-6 ends up paying the ultimate price. Beyond the Vanguard’s authority, you’ll venture into the Reef alone and take justice into your own hands. Explore new regions, awaken new powers, earn a wealth of new weapons, and uncover lost Awoken secrets. The hunt is on.
Now, the leak comes from Reddit user Ginsor, who is compiled everything that has been leaked so far about the upcoming DLC, check it out below and obviously, take this with a grain of salt, because there is no real way to be sure about this until the blog posts officially confirm them or they show up in the game when it comes out.
RAID
- The new raid is called “Last Wish” and will have a normal and prestige mode.
- The raid boss is called Dul Incaru, the Eternal Return (not 100% sure about that).
- There will be something like a one-time challenge to finish the new raid within 24h after its launch.
NEW STRIKES (edited)
- The 4 new strikes are called: “Warden of Nothing”, “The Hollowed Lair”, “The Corrupted”, & “Broodhold”.
- All 4 will – as always – also be available as nightfall versions.
- The nightfall versions will have special challenges such as not receiving any arc damage in the final encounter.
GAMBIT
- Gambit will have a ranking system called “Infamy”.
- Similar to Crucible, you will unlock gear and ornaments while increasing your rank.
- Infamy can be reset.
- The highest Infamy Rank seems to be level 15.
- Hawthrone will have a new clan engram for Gambit.
MASTERWORK CORES
- Weekly clan milestones let you receive a masterwork core.
- There is a chance of obtaining a masterwork core with a Boss kill.
- Masterwork cores can be purchased (I don’t know where and for which currency).
DUNGEON
- There will be a dungeon called “The Shattered Throne”.
- Multiple activities will take place in this dungeon.
- At some other part of the game, we will receive an unpurified version of an armor set called “Reverie Dawn”, which we can purify through different activities in “The Shattered Throne”.
PETRA VENJ
- Petra Venj returns as a new NPC (probably at the Reef).
- Petra Venj offers special bounties with certain goals such as completing all of them within one week.
CLAN FOCUS
- A stronger focus on clan activities.
- Examples would be milestones/goals such as completing raids, strikes, nightfalls, crucible matches, escalation protocols, etc. together.
- Some of them require even a full 6-player clan-fireteam such as the completion of “Last Wish”.
- Playing with clanmates can grant special buffs in certain activities, e.g. increased recovery/resilience/mobility.
ACE OF SPADES
- There is a mission where we will have to reclaim Ace of Spades back from Uldren.
- Once reclaimed, it will first be a broken version and we have repair it through a long quest series with several steps in multiple activities.
PRISON ESCAPEES
- We will have to hunt down escpaees of the Prison of Elders in multiple activities.
- E.g. Finding escapees in the patrol zones of other planets, in lost sectors, at public events, etc.
COLLECTIONS
- Collections will also include Destiny 1 achievements (console players only obviously).
- Examples are completion of campaigns and raids, character transfer to Destiny 2, Reaching the Lighthouse, triumphs, certain Grimoire score, collection of specific weapons such as Thorn, the Last Word, and Gjallarhorn, etc.
COSMETICS
- New ghost shapes (pyramid/triangle-like shape; something looking similar to an override frequency; fallen-themed)
- Taken-themed sparrow
STORY
This last part – probably the most interesting for most of you – is a very rough summary and I’m also not 100% certain here. But the following is what I got from the story.
- Uldren thinks his sister, Queen Mara, is still alive.
- He thinks she is trapped by the Techeun Illyn in the Dreaming City.
- In order to save her, she is telling him in his “visions” to open the gates to the Dreaming City.
- He somehow allies with the prisoners in the Prison of Elders in order to achieve his goal.
- While trying to regain control of the prison alongside with Petra Venj, Cayde-6 dies.
- After Uldren succeded to open the gate to the Dreaming City, he immediately gets killed by a creature, but the gate remains open.
- It is now Petra Venj’s duty to protect the city, in which all Awoken secrets and treasures are kept (and we will help her with that).
That’s about it, for now, if this Destiny 2 Forsaken Leak turns out to be true, it’s going to be pretty good for Bungie, given how the reception regarding the game has been pretty mixed from fans and most of the player base is disappointed with the content overall.
