This article is about the Destiny 2 expansion. For the military artificial intelligences, see Warmind.

Warmind

Warmind is the second expansion for Destiny 2, and was released on May 8, 2018. The story is centered around the once-thought-lost scientist and AI linguist Anastasia Bray, the titular Warmind Rasputin, and the ancient Hive Worm god Xol, Will of the Thousands. You, the Guardian, are tasked with aiding Ms. Bray in helping her reconnect with Rasputin and taking down Xol. In your journey, you will uncover ancient secrets of the legendary Clovis Bray research corporation, the Hive, and discover new weapons, such as the Sleeper Simulant, Polaris Lance, and the Escalation Protocol arsenal.

Description

Destiny 2 Expansion II: Warmind continues your Guardian's journey with an all-new story. Ana Bray, a Guardian long thought lost, searches for a connection to her past…one that could be lost forever on the polar ice caps of Mars. As Golden Age Warsat begin slamming into the ice, the glaciers begin to thaw, revealing the core of the Warmind Rasputin – and an ancient Hive army bent on its destruction. Now free, the Hive swarm in service to their god Xol. Help Ana discover her past and destroy the Hive's gargantuan worm-god before it is too late.
