Destiny 2: The Final Shape
Destiny 2: The Final Shape is an upcoming major expansion for Destiny 2, a first-person shooter video game by Bungie. Representing the eighth expansion and the seventh year of extended content for Destiny 2, it is scheduled to be released on June 4, 2024, after being delayed from its original February 2024 date. The Final Shape will revolve around the player's Guardian seeking out the franchise's major villain, the Witness, who had disappeared through a portal that it created on the surface of the celestial Traveler at the conclusion of Lightfall. The Guardian and the Vanguard must stop the Witness from creating the titular Final Shape—the calcification and destruction of all life in the universe—and end the war between the Light and Darkness. The Final Shape will conclude Destiny's first major saga, the "Light and Darkness Saga".

In addition to new super abilities for the existing Light subclasses, a new subclass, "Prismatic", will be added, allowing players to combine and use Light and Darkness abilities in tandem. The expansion will also add new content across the game, including new missions, Player versus Environment locations, Player versus Player maps, player gear, weaponry, and a new raid. Unlike prior years, Year 7 will not follow the seasonal model in which the year is divided into four seasonal content offerings. Instead, there will be three large episodes, which will be standalone experiences, and each episode will be divided into three acts. The episodes, titled Echoes, Revenant, and Heresy, were originally set to release in March, July, and November, respectively, but these have been pushed back due to the delay of The Final Shape; their new release dates have not been revealed.
