Buckle up, everyone, because Bungie has just dropped a bombshell hype bomb of Saturn’s size—the Edge of Fate reveal event for Destiny 2 marks its landing just seven days later. Like, actually, at seven days. That’s all there is to it. And if you’re not already on edge with excitement, what are you doing with your life?
So, what is it all about? Bungie’s being all secretive about it. The name itself has the community abuzz. Some say it relates to the next expansion; for some, the general opinion is that it is a secret dungeon or raid. And then come the very few crazies who swear it means Cayde’s coming back. Let a man dream.
Ah, classic like Bungie-the tweet short, cryptic and still enough within to fuel Reddit with talks. No other details, no teasers, just a date and vibe. And honestly? That’s how they get us every time. The hype train has pulled out the station and there’s no getting off it now.
For those that have been living under a rock (or grinding on their other video game), it’s Destiny 2 that has really been hitting it hard these past few weeks. The Season of the Wish has really turned into a wild roller coaster ride, and with The Final Shape looming on the horizon, this event could be the bridge to whatever insanity madness comes next. New loot? New story beats? The next big bad? All of the above possible?
And let’s talk about the timing. One week. That hardly leaves enough time to finish your backlog of bounties, much less mentally prepare yourself for whatever curveball Bungie is about to throw at you. Of course, the community is already analyzing every pixel of the attached image (because, of course they are), and the interpretations are, well, creative, to say the least.
Bungie does not do “small” when it comes to revelations-remember the trailer for the Witch Queen? The teaser for Lightfall? They really know how to make an entrance. Yeah. Mark the date, set those alarms, and stock the pantry-you are going to be in it next week.
Go ahead and grind before the season closes for all those who are really out of the loop. The Edge of Fate. Whatever it was going to come after, you would have wanted to be ready for it. And if you’re still not excited? Well…maybe check your pulse. Just saying.
So, what’s your gamble for the big reveal? New subclass? Twist in the saga of Light against Darkness? Or something no one saw coming? (Probably the last one.) Either way, one thing is for sure-the Destiny 2 show is about to remind all of their viewers why it is still among the most talked-about games around.
See you starside, Guardians. Almost done waiting.
