There's something intriguing about Edge of Fate, but it's buried under the weight of its own expectations and endless baffling changes.

The Edge of Fate feels a little stale in the gameplay department, but plants some interesting seeds for Destiny 2's ongoing narrative.

Aside from a compelling narrative, Destiny 2's latest expansion is a mishmash of unimpressive visuals and underwhelming mechanics, writes our reviewer.

From a narrative standpoint, Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate offers up intriguing nuggets to kick off the start of this new saga. Lodi’s backstory, the truth behind a main character’s past and the elusive nature of the Nine and their omniscient plans for the galaxy are all standouts in this expansion. The main problem is the campaign's execution.

Bungie is no stranger to a crisis, but should not underestimate the scale of the task it's facing.

Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate will be releasing for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X on July 15. Bungie has not announced the exact release time of the expansion; however, it’s a safe bet that the new content will go live at or around the weekly reset time, which occurs every Tuesday.

The Solstice event has brought three new weapons to the Destiny 2 sandbox, one of which is a reprised bow with a drastically improved perk pool. Unlike past Solstice events, this year's summer event offers bonus loot from playing virtually any activity.
