@Destiny2Team Thank you all for everything. This is bigger than all of us. You gave us all a place to call home 💙

[Destiny 2 Team @Destiny2Team]

To the Destiny 2 community,

Thank you.

As artists, our goal has always been to create worlds filled with wonder, mystery, beauty, and adventure. But what brings those worlds to life is you. You take our designs, our napkin sketches, our "wouldn't it be cool if..." ideas and transform them into something real. Your creativity, your passion, and your love for the game give our work purpose.

We've always believed Destiny could be a place where expression is celebrated, where players can see themselves and each other in the worlds we build, where every Guardian can forge their own legend—and you proved it.

Watching your Guardians grow, embrace new allies, take down bigger and badder bosses, solve mind-bending puzzles, dodge death traps, avoid Taken boopers, and overcome every Raid challenge we throw at you—all while looking incredible—has been a constant reminder of why this universe matters.

You shaped it. You made it matter. You are the light of Destiny.

With Monument of Triumph, we set out to create a series of love letters to Guardians, new and old. We shared a preview last week of armor inspired by early designs from the original Destiny but have also sprinkled some winks and nods throughout the rewards releasing tomorrow. We hope they feel like a small thank you for everything you’ve given us.

From all of us on the Destiny 2 art team, thank you for supporting us, inspiring us, and continuing to bring this world to life in ways we could never have imagined. You give our art meaning.

With gratitude,
The Destiny 2 Art Team

Before we dig in, we wanted to take a moment to thank you. Seeing your reactions has been really moving to us.

Frankly, we wouldn't be here without you... and the way you continue to show up for this world means more than we can fully put into words.

Every memory and every moment you've shared with us over the years has fueled our future. Every ounce of our June update is for you, and we hope you feel it as you continue to read through our insight articles and upcoming TWIDs, let alone when you're playing the update with us on June 9.

Yeah, it's a bit sappy and sentimental... but that's how we're feeling while reading all of your stories over the last week. We hope to keep building worlds to inspire friendship for years to come and truly couldn't do it without you and your voices.

Again, thank you for being here and for sticking with us.

All right, let's get to the goods. Our second Dev Insights about the upcoming Monument of Triumph update covers changes to...
🔫 Exotic and Legendary weapons, tier upgrading, and crafting
7️⃣ Reworked artifacts and anti-Champion counters
🟣 Vendors, focusing, and attunement
👀 and more!

@A_dmg04 Thank you.

[XBL Hardest Try @HardestTry]

@Destiny2Team Thank you for everything.

[XBL Hardest Try @HardestTry]

@Destiny2Team @nnarum We'll be there, Guardian.

[Destiny 2 Team @Destiny2Team]

@nnarum We appreciate you - ALL of you.

Many of us on the team will be on the Tower on June 9 to visit Monument of Triumph with you.

While we're confident the servers won't crash, we've seen some posts floating around. Our Operations Center is prepared for the challenge.

[SirDimetrious @SirDimetrious]

This was always my favorite trailer for the original Destiny.

[XBL Hardest Try @HardestTry]

@falloutplays We'll be there. ❤️

[XBL Hardest Try @HardestTry]

@A_dmg04 thank you for all you have done for us. I wish you well in your future endeavors

[Luke Smith @thislukesmith]

At its best, content was a machine to create memories and friendships. No new content stings.

This pain is about losing a place where so many memories were made. It stings not because of what it was, but the realization of what it won't be.

Mr. Datto, don't make me cry please :(

[XBL Hardest Try @HardestTry]

@RIPM7lFyx7HqElb @CharOnTwitch Lmao no.

For almost twelve years, we have had the joy and honor to explore the Destiny universe with you all. Through all the ups and downs, surprises and triumphs, building Destiny alongside our players has been a monumental privilege. While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2.

As our focus turns towards a new beginning for Bungie, we will begin work incubating our next games. To that end, on June 9, 2026, we will release the final live-service content update for Destiny 2 to begin that new journey as a studio.

Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today. Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to.

We’re proud of Destiny 2, the places it took us, and the legacy it has created. Because of you all, our universe is vast, built on years of shared stories, adventures, and victories. From the Cosmodrome to the Pale Heart to the Lawless Frontier, we have forged life-long memories and friendships with you all.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made that journey with us.

From the deepest part of our hearts, thank you, and we'll see you in the stars.
