Destiny 2 Beyond Light update notes as Bungie provides server status latest

Published

Today is the big day when Destiny 2 Beyond Light launches across PS4, Xbox One and PC.

The full update notes have been released by Bungie, who are now preparing to bring servers back online.

This process is scheduled to end at 6pm GMT, meaning that Guardians should be able to start exploring Europa soon after.

There is always the chance of Destiny 2 server delays, as like any big update, problems are expected.

For now, Guardians should be able to update their games before everything goes back online later today.

The latest message from Bungie confirms that some issues are already being reported, telling fans:

“We’re currently investigating server and connection issues while trying to launch into the game. Stay tuned for updates.”

Guardians should already have the option to preload Destiny 2 Beyond Light onto their chosen platform.

This is the original schedule for the release of Beyond Light today:

  • November 10, 9:00 AM PST (1700 UTC): Destiny 2 Update 3.0.0.1 will be available across all platforms and regions. Players will be able to log back into Destiny 2.
  • November 10 12:00 PM PDT (2000 UTC): Destiny 2 maintenance is expected to conclude.

The full Destiny 2 update notes have been released and can be found below:

VENDOR ARMOR 

  • Vanguard, Crucible, and Gambit vendors now all reward a Prime version of their respective ritual engram for completing the weekly challenge.  

    • These engrams award the ritual’s new Season of the Hunt armor on a knockout list until the full set has been obtained. 

    • Once the full set is obtained the engrams drop re-rolls of the ritual armor as well as world weapons. (Note this is on a per-ritual basis; each ritual engram assesses separately.) 

    • All armor dropped from these engrams is high stat armor.  

  • The base (non-Prime) version of Vanguard, Crucible, and Gambit engrams now drops world armor until the respective ritual set has been obtained from the Prime ritual engram. 

  • Once the ritual set has been obtained from the Prime ritual engram, low-stat ritual armor will drop. 

  • Zavala, Shaxx, and Drifter now sell low-stat versions of their new Season of the Hunt armor. Armor must be obtained from the ritual’s Prime engram before it can be purchased.
