Destiny 2 is shutting down its servers for 25 hours before the release of The Final Shape – perfect time to catch up on 10 years of lore.

When is the server down? The Final Shape, the next expansion for Destiny 2, will launch on June 4, 2024. In preparation for the DLC, there will be maintenance work for which the servers will be shut down for approximately 25 hours.

  • Maintenance work will start on June 3, 2024 at 6:00 p.m.
  • The servers will then be available again on June 4, 2024 at approximately 7:00 p.m.

    • Of course, we will keep you up to date on the server status on MeinMMO: As soon as the servers are back online, you will find out here:

    If you’re wondering how to survive this eternal server downtime, you now have the opportunity to refresh your knowledge of Destiny 2’s lore. However, this will take some time.

    YouTuber invites you to history lesson, topic: Destiny

    What kind of video is this? The YouTuber My Name is Byf is THE person to contact if you want to find out about the lore of Destiny 2. He has over 1.07 million subscribers on YouTube, regularly reaches hundreds of thousands of viewers with his videos and is known in the community for preparing the lore of the loot shooter in a really high quality.

    For the release of The Final Shape, he released his longest video to date: the complete story of Destiny. The entire work is almost 10 hours long, divided into individual chapters, and has already had over 636,000 views.

    Here you can watch the video of My Name is Byf on YouTube:

    Of course, you don’t have to watch the video in one go. Using timestamps in the video description, you can, for example, jump directly to “The Taken King” or “The Forsaken Prince.”

    However, there is a small disappointment for German-speaking Destiny players: the video is only available in English. Basic knowledge of English is therefore advantageous, even though the subtitles automatically generated by YouTube are in German. Unfortunately, these are often not particularly good.

    This is a very special video for the Destiny community – and not just because it helps them survive a server downtime, a long journey or a boring night shift. With The Final Shape, Destiny brings the “Light and Darkness” saga to an end after 10 years.

    The video will help players refresh their knowledge of Destiny lore in case they’ve forgotten something over the years or maybe skipped some expansions. The video also evokes nostalgia for some players on YouTube about the many hours of gameplay they’ve had. For some, life changed significantly in those 10 years.

    It wasn’t easy for Bungie to bring the story of the saga to an end after 10 years, explained game director Tyson Green in an interview. The developers wanted to evoke emotions and create a good ending, even if Destiny is to continue after The Final Shape: Bungie talks about the difficulty of ending the story of Destiny 2 after 10 years
