'''''Destiny 2''''' is an open-world multiplayer first-person shooter title video game developed by [[Bungie]]. It is the sequel to the shared-worlds FPS ''[[Destiny]]'', and was released on September 6, 2017 on the [[Xbox One]], and [[PlayStation 4]] platforms. It was released on October 24, 2017 for PC, initially through Blizzard.<ref name="TWAB">[https://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=44353 '''Bungie.net''' - ''This Week At Bungie – 02/11/2016'']</ref><ref name="Kotaku"/> Due to Bungie splitting from Activision and now self-publishing the game, Destiny 2 has been available on Steam since 1 October 2019 and has since been removed from the Blizzard App.

''Humanity's last safe city has fallen to an overwhelming invasion force, led by Ghaul, the imposing commander of the brutal Red Legion. He has stripped the city's Guardians of their power, and forced the survivors to flee. You will venture to mysterious, unexplored worlds of our solar system to discover an arsenal of weapons and devastating new combat abilities. To defeat the Red Legion and confront Ghaul, you must reunite humanity's scattered heroes, stand together, and fight back to reclaim our home.''<ref>[https://www.destinythegame.com/ '''DestinytheGame.com''' - ''The World of Destiny 2'']</ref><ref name="Last Call"/><ref name="Rally the Troops"/>

''Destiny 2'' included 4 new [[Patrol]] zones two of which were removed, [[Nessus]], [[Io]], [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], and the [[European Dead Zone]], the largest open world ever made by [[Bungie]], filled to the brim with new enemies, weapons, armor, and activities such as public events, dungeons known as "Lost Sectors", mini-quests called adventures, and much more to do and explore.

Character aesthetics such as face, sex, markings, etc. can be preserved and carried over for old players from ''Destiny 1'', as long as those characters have both reached Level 20 and have completed [[The Black Garden]] [[Story]] mission. Everything aside from aethstetics do not transfer over to Destiny 2, in order to make the game feel like a fresh start and not a direct continuation of the original game. "''Veteran accounts''" are given "''honors that reflect their Destiny 1 accomplishments''". The [[Grimoire]] does not feature. The lore is implemented directly throughout ''Destiny 2''. This includes a scanning feature that largely replaces the old system.<ref>[https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2017/05/21/bungie-is-ditching-grimoire-cards-in-destiny-2/#638ad0a3d520 '''Forbes''' - ''Bungie Is Ditching Grimoire Cards In Destiny 2'']</ref> In [[Forsaken]], the [[Triumphs]] tab was added, allowing players to accrue lore throughout the game, functioning like an in-game version of Grimoire from the original game.

Destiny 2 featured an all-new cinematic campaign with a host of new [[Story]] missions and cutscenes that form a story unlike that seen in its predecessor. The first mission, [[Homecoming]], sends Guardians on a journey to take back [[The Last City]] and the [[Traveler]] from the [[Red Legion]], led by [[Dominus Ghaul]], who has a brief cameo in the first mission, explaining his intentions.
