As the name implies, Destiny 2’s 2.0 update is meant to make sweeping changes to Bungie’s game. Some of those changes we knew about ahead of time but others were kept secret until the patch notes went live after the extended maintenance and downtime.

Check out the full Destiny Update 2.0 patch notes below:

Player Character

Of course, the biggest change for Destiny 2 is the new weapon slot system. Instead of the kinetic, elemental, and power weapon arrangement that relegated specific weapons to specific slots, this new system frees things up a bit. Now, players can equip certain sniper rifles or shotguns in their kinetic slot, and non-kinetic versions will move to the elemental/secondary slot like in Destiny 1. It’s a system that works within the confines of Destiny 2 but also should feel more like Destiny 1 in that players can carry two high damage weapons.

Paired with that, Bungie has also adjusted damage numbers for numerous weapon archetypes within Destiny 2 in an effort to lower the time to kill in PvP and shift the meta in new directions. Three tap hand cannons (hand cannons that can kill a Guardian with three headshots) are back, but that is only the beginning.

This update also paves the way for the new mod system coming with Forsaken next week. Right now, mods are simply inactive, but eventually new mods will come in and take their place. These mods will force players to make specific choices about their armor/build and designate certain weapons for unique tasks.

Truly, the update is so large that it’s impossible to cover everything. From more vault slots to improvements to exotic armor, this is the update that active players have been waiting for. Perhaps the biggest change that seems insignificant but which actually make a huge difference is the ability to delete shaders in bulk (stacks of 5). Even with the vault space increase, players are going to be collecting a lot more gear now that random perk rolls are coming back.

And best of all, everything included with the update is free for all Destiny 2 players – no Forsaken purchase necessary. Every change included in the update will be available for every player.

Destiny 2: Forsaken launches September 4, 2018 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
