Destiny 2 update and hotfix: Bungie servers and maintenance for new patch

Destiny 2 servers went down today, but the good news is that it was all part of Bungie’s maintenance plan for September 2.

The team behind the hit shooter are launching a new update and hotfix today to solve some of the most annoying issues since Season 15 started.

Guardians should be able to log back into the game and start downloading the latest Destiny 2 update released by Bungie.

The patch notes for today’s changes are quite extensive, and while the development team are calling it a hotfix, it does a lot more than solves one or two issues.

The full details can be found below as part of the official Destiny 2 update today and include the following changes:

GAMEPLAY AND INVESTMENT

  • Fixed an issue preventing players from changing the armor energy type of Lucky Pants. 

  • Actually changed the cost of Global Reach to three energy.
