To defeat them, Guardians in this new season will harness a Light suppression technology offered by an uncertain alliance with Caiatlthe empress of the Cabal.

• The tronomondo. The new destination of Destiny 2. The throne, a place of corruption and splendor, is the seat of power of Savathûn. Here, the guardians will have to fight for the truth, discovering that the mysteries involve both the Light and the Dark.
• Source. A new six-player matchmaking activity that represents the struggle for the conquest of the world.
• New “Disciple’s Promise” raid. A submerged Pyramid hides in the swamps of Savathûn’s throne. Guardians will have to assemble their squad and face the ancient dangers of this place.

The season includes:

Then, with the help of Caiatl’s most trusted psykers, they will enter the psychworld, a psychic plane where thoughts manifest as physical reality. He neutralizes the glowing hive and captures Savathûn’s lieutenants to proclaim victory.
