Season 23 of Destiny 2 starts in just under two weeks, including a brand new dungeon and some updates. It will also officially be the last season, because after that Bungie will switch to an episodic model. In this article, MeinMMO summarizes for you what is known about the coming “Season of Desire”.

This article was updated on November 14th with the first teaser trailer for the upcoming Season 23. Thanks to him, the Guardians were reminded: “Every wish has a price!”

Season 23 is the end of an era: The new “Season of Wish” is not just the last season in Lightfall. It also marks the end of an era in Destiny 2. Because in the upcoming DLC ​​“The Finale Form” Bungie will replace its well-known seasons with episodes.

In addition, Season 23 could be the longest season in the history of Destiny 2, as “The Final Form”, the final DLC, will be delayed by three months, according to insiders. However, this has not yet been officially confirmed by Bungie.

The final season will definitely be exciting because it will bring players back an exciting secret from Forsaken that has never been solved so far. It will also pave the way for further development of Destiny 2’s story around the final battle to save the universe.

This is how Bungie revealed the name of the new Season 23

What content does Season 23 offer?

What awaits the Guardians in PvE? First of all, Bungie will continue the ongoing Lightfall story in its Season of Wish.

Each season there is also either a new dungeon or a new/repeated raid to experience in PvE.

In the previous “Season of the Witch,” players were able to relive the legacy raid “Crota’s End.” Therefore, a new dungeon will be available in the coming season. It will then join the seven active dungeons.

When does the new dungeon start in Season 23? This is not yet known exactly. But based on previous publications, you can assume that the launch will probably be on Friday, December 1st, 2023 at 6 p.m. German time.

Once the dungeon is live, players will have the opportunity to earn new legendary armor and weapon sets in the activity, as well as a new exotic weapon.

How much does Season 23 and the dungeon cost? To access Season 23 and the latest dungeon in Destiny 2, you either need the Deluxe Edition of the Lightfall DLC, where everything is included.

However, if you only have the standard version of the Lightfall DLC, you have to buy Season 23 and the dungeon separately.

  • Season 23 will cost 1,200 Silver in the Eververse Store. However, if you want to play it, you have to buy 1,500 silver (14.99 euros) because there is no suitable silver offer for it.
  • The “Dungeon Key” for “Lightfall” is sold in the Eververse store for 2000 silver (19.99 euros) and includes access to both DLC dungeons. Individual purchase is not possible.
  • The most stylish cowboy gear comes from the Destiny 2 dungeon: Guardian’s Pillar

    What awaits the Guardians in PvP? The newly founded PvP team is currently continuing to work on solutions for PvP, which has been neglected for far too long, in order to give players a better experience again.

    It was announced that Bungie’s goal is to steer the Crucible in a direction that satisfies the most dedicated PvP players.

    This also means staying true to the plan of continuing to bring old and new cards into the Crucible rotation.

  • In Season 22, this was a brand new Vex map called Multiplex.
  • In Season 23 you can look forward to the return of the Dreaming City map “Citadel”.
  • Bungie has also been working on tuning PvP. In addition to the changes to modes and rotations, Bungie has continued to work on checkmate, matchmaking, spawn points and competitive changes for Season 23.

    In addition, Bungie will make a PvP bug in Iron Banner a permanent feature in Season 23:

    These free events are coming up in Season 23: The new “Season of Wish” will definitely include the winter event “The Dawning”. The players will bake cookies again and deliver them to NPCs, who will thank you with small gifts.

    If it is confirmed that Bungie is postponing its upcoming DLC ​​“The Final Form”, then other events could also fall within the period of Season 23 of Destiny 2.

  • Some players expressed the suspicion that Bungie might revive its old Valentine’s Day event, “Scarlet Fever Week”, in February in order to fill the overly long Season 23 with content.
  • It would be possible that Destiny 2’s spring event, the “Guardian Games,” would also start in Season 23. However, this depends on how long the delay is. The Guardian Games usually take place between April and May.

    However, it is not yet known whether anything will change in the event activities. But what is pretty certain is that there will definitely be new cosmetics as well as armor and weapons to be earned at the events.

    These quality of life updates are coming in Season 23

    New Fireteam Finder brings players together: Probably the most outstanding quality-of-life update in Season 23 will be the “Fireteam Finder”.

    It will allow players to team up for any activity without matchmaking. Also for raids.

  • The tool will provide the option to tag LFG searches with simple terms to describe what type of group you are leading or the people you want to recruit.
  • You also have the option of automatically creating groups that are eligible to join so that you can take action straight away.
  • Groups can also be created and the creator can approve or reject each person who tries to join. This is intended to give you strict control over what type of group you put together.
  • This is what the new Fireteam Finder looks like in the game

    Weaponmaster Focuses: The weapon master Banshee-44 will join other NPCs in Season 23 and offer a targeted focus of his loot.

  • At the beginning of Season 23, the forge weapons of Häkke, Omolon, Suros and Veist will be available to you.
  • More weapons will be added with future updates.
  • Say goodbye to Legendary Shards: The Legendary Shards, the currency that players have known since the launch of the loot shooter, will be completely removed from the game.

  • Weapons and armor will soon only be able to be purchased with Glimmer and Engrams. Previously, purchases were possible with Legendary Shards.
  • Part 1 of this change starts in Season 23.

  • All costs for Legendary Shards from the Monument of Lost Lights will be removed in Season 23. The cost of Glimmer, Exotic Ciphers, and Conquest Loot all remain the same, only the cost of Legendary Shards changes.
  • Second, starting in Season 23, focusing non-masters will only cost Ritual Engrams and Glimmer. Master Weapon Focusing still requires seven Trial Passes or Twilight Ciphers.
  • So if you still have a lot of Legendary Shards, you should exchange them for other items now, before the start of Season 23, so that you don’t lose too much.

    These would be, for example:

  • Buy 10 raid banners for 30 legendary fragments at Hawthorne
  • With Master Rahool, 5 Enhancement Cores per day for 30 Legendary Shards, 3 Enhancement Prisms or 1 Ascendancy Alloy per week for 400 Legendary Shards. to exchange.
  • You can also get rid of fragments on the moon. 1 Illusory Fragment costs you 10 Legendary Fragments there. After Season 23 begins, you can exchange 10 Illusory Fragments for 10,000 Glimmer.
  • Destiny 2 is deleting its most important currency because you are either too rich or too poor and cheated anyway

    Vault access from orbit: The upcoming change to access the vault will be useful in Season 23. Currently, many players still use third-party apps to transfer their items to their characters when they are in orbit.

    However, after the change, you will be able to access your vault directly in-game, even if you are in orbit with your strike team. This allows quick access to your items.

    What do you think? How does the story continue? And what do you think of the changes presented so far for Season 23? Feel free to tell us in the comments.

    The quality of Season 23 will also determine the current crisis at Bungie: Destiny 2: “We know that we have lost a lot of your trust” – This is how it should continue
