Server Downtime and Update Schedule

This week, Destiny 2 will experience server downtime at 6:45 a.m. PDT for expected maintenance. The update will be available at 10 a.m. PDT, and maintenance is expected to conclude 2 hours later at midday Pacific time.

New PvP Map Pack and 3v3 Playlist

Bungie is releasing three new PvP maps: one on Europa, another on Nuna, and a pyramid ship map. These maps will be available for all players and featured on a separate 3v3 playlist called New Territory. The playlist will replace the 3v3 quickplay node and feature survival, elimination, clash, and collision on the new maps. Completing the playlist will award players with the new emblem called Station.

The Final Shape and Exotic Armor Rewards

In the Final Shape, players can obtain new exotic armor pieces from the brand new reputation track tied to Raul. Once players max out Raul’s rank, they can access a new tier of focusing called Ingram Insiders, where they can focus for new exotic armor pieces. Stocking up on exotic engrams and ascendant shards before June 4th is recommended to be ready for the new armor.

Archie Quest in the EDZ

This week, players can embark on the Archie Quest in the EDZ. To start the quest, visit the Annex in the Tower and interact with the Archie Footprints ad. The quest will lead players to various locations in the EDZ, including the church, the fishing spot, the giant ship in the sunken isles, and the Dark Forest in the EDZ. Completing the quest within the weekly reset is essential, as the quests are only available for one week each.

Pantheon Challenge and Spoils of Conquest

This week, the Pantheon Challenge features Garoth Caretaker Macrocosm, Atrax One, and Oryx. Completing the challenge rewards players with the Exalted Beyond Oryx emblem and the chance to earn legendary and exotic rewards. Spoils of Conquest can be earned by completing encounters and triumphs in Pantheon. Running the challenge on multiple characters can yield a significant number of Spoils of Conquest.
