Bungie Detailing Destiny 2’s Season Of The Dawn Next Week

Destiny 2‘s current content season, the Season of the Undying, is quickly drawing to a close. This week marks the final Iron Banner of Season 8, and there’s only two more weeks of Undying after that. And though we’re quickly barreling toward the conclusion of the Vex’s attack on the moon, we hadn’t heard anything about where Destiny 2 will be headed when its next season, the Season of the Dawn, kicks off in December–until now.

In an early This Week at Bungie blog post released ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday, Bungie finally made clear when Guardians will get some new details about what Dawn entails. The developer will drop info about the next season in a livestream set for 10 AM Pacific time on Wednesday, December 4.

It’s somewhat atypical for Bungie to hold back info on its next season until so close to that season’s release, but it might speak to how things have changed in the third year of Destiny 2. The developer has made clear it intends to tell one long, overarching story with this year’s four seasons, starting with the events of the Shadowkeep expansion. Though we’ve apparently seen all the content Undying has to offer–last week saw the start of the Final Assault version of the Vex Offensive activity that has marked the season–it’s likely there’s a little more story coming that will lead from the end of Undying into the beginning of Dawn.

We’re also waiting to hear more about what the Season of the Dawn is all about. Bungie revealed a tiny tease in one of its Vidocs about Shadowkeep and the Season of the Undying when it showed a whiteboard on which developers were detailing the arcs of each of the upcoming seasons. Under the “Dawn” heading was one intriguing phrase: “Fix the timeline.” That suggests we’ll be seeing more to do with the Vex, Destiny’s time-traveling robot enemies, and we might even get a chance to revisit some past Destiny 2 events or story points when the next season rolls around.

We also know that the Season of the Dawn will be longer than the Season of the Undying, which was a bit truncated by the delayed release of Shadowkeep in October. Seasons usually run about three months, but Undying only lasted about two. The longer length of the rest of the three seasons this year may allow them to include more content, or at least, to stretch out content drops over a longer period.

There are a lot of unanswered questions about the Season of the Dawn, but hopefully Bungie plans to shed quite a bit of light on it come December 4.
