Activision has announced Destiny 2: Forsaken at E3! Also announced, Destiny 2: Forsaken – Gambit Competitive Mode!

Destiny 2: Forsaken:

The Reef has fallen to lawlessness, and now the most-wanted criminals in the galaxy – the Barons & the Prince of the Awoken, 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 long lost Awoken secrets. The hunt is on.

All-New Destinations To Explore:

This expansion takes place on an all new destination, The Tangled Shore, and new endgame destination, The Dreaming City.

All-New Cinematic Story:

Following the Red War, the Reef is in shambles and the entire region has become a “lawless frontier”. After the fall of the Prison of Elders and the death of your friend/mentor, players embark on a mission of vengeance to hunt down the man (and the gang) responsible. But lurking just underneath, something unseen works a bigger game – one that could mean the end of the mysterious people, known as the Awoken.

Brand New Competitive Mode: Gambit

Two teams of 4 race to summon a Primeval enemy and be the first to burn it down.

Disrupt the other team by sending a combatant blocker or invading directly with one of your own players.

FIGHT

Shoot aliens until they’re dead. Your enemies will get stronger over time, so work together to defeat them quickly.

COLLECT

Pick up the Motes that drop when your enemies fall. You can hold up to 15, but you lose them if you die.

BANK

Drop your Motes in the center structure. Earn a Blocker by depositing 5, 10, or 15 Motes at once. Bank 75 Motes to summon a Primeval.

INVADE

When your bank reaches 25 and 50, you can send one player through a portal to invade the opponents’ arena.
