Destiny 2 hides a number of underground passages under the surface of the open world that hide secrets. Both on Earth in the cosmodrome and on the moon, deep digging was carried out. But parallel worlds were also created that lead into unknown dimensions. Players can explore these mysteries by starting what are known as dungeons. We have summarized all currently playable dungeons and their secrets for you.
What are dungeons in Destiny 2? In Destiny 2, dungeons are a kind of small endgame for up to 3 players. Basically, they are similar to a raid because they contain mechanics and puzzles in addition to several final bosses. However, they are only for 3 instead of 6 players. That’s why dungeons are often referred to as “mini endgame activities” and usually also offer an exotic weapon to hunt.
Bungie made a commitment to releasing more and more regular endgame content drops during The Witch Queen’s big reveal, and dungeons are a regular part of that.
MeinMMO has put together an overview of all dungeons for you in this article and updates it regularly. This article was last updated on May 27, 2022with updated information on the new dungeon “Duality”.
In 2022 there will be 2 new dungeons in addition to the 4 already known. They will come into play alternately with the raids. This means that next week, on May 24, 2022 at the start of Season 17, players can already expect a new dungeon.
Who can play the dungeons? Until 2022, dungeons were always included and an integral part of the expansion that launched them – so playable at no extra cost. However, Bungie has revised its offer concept in this regard and canceled the sale of dungeons in October 2021 as an inclusive offer.
Only the prophecy dungeon was a gift from Bungie to its players and can be played by everyone for free.

How long does a dungeon last? Normally you should allow 1-2 hours for exploring a dungeon for the first time. The duration of the activity always depends on your task force. A well-rehearsed task force can of course be much faster, especially if the mechanics are already known.
