Shortly after Destiny 2‘s Into the Light update, Bungie’s shooter reached its highest concurrent player count on Steam in seven months and is maintaining solid numbers. Destiny 2‘s player health is likely in for another boost when The Final Shape expansion arrives in June.
On April 9, Destiny 2‘s Into the Light update added an assortment of exciting features for returning and new fans alike to try out. The significant patch was headlined by the Onslaught PvE mode, Hall of Champions social space, returning BRAVE weapons, new PvP maps, and more, features that have clearly been tempting enough to bring a major upswing to Destiny 2‘s popularity.
This is good news for the Destiny 2 community, which is looking ahead to June’s The Final Shape update. The major expansion is Destiny 2‘s first since Lightfall in February 2023 and was originally planned to launch in February of this year until it ran into significant delays. Destiny 2‘s newest resurgence combined with June’s update could help the game return to its place near the top of player charts for months to come if things go well. Recently, Bungie shared plenty of The Final Shape’s details including its new enemy faction and subclass.
