Bungie are due to roll out a couple of pretty big updates for Destiny 2 in the next few days, alongside Curse of Osiris, the first major DLC for the game, which is also right around the corner. In light of that, the studio recently took to Twitter to confirm a few details about these future updates with fans.
Bungie firstly confirmed that servers for the game will offline on Tuesday, the 5th of December, expectedly from 7 AM to 10 AM PST. This is being done to make sure the server is ready for the launches of both, Update 1.1.0, as well as the launch of the Curse of Osiris DLC.
In another tweet, Bungie confirmed that both the update and the DLC will be available for download on the 5th of December at 8 Am PST, and that the DLC and the game will become playable once the server maintenance is finished. The Update, by the way, is going to introduce pretty important improvements and fixes as well, such as masterwork weapons and vendor fixes. A Reddit user recently compiled the upcoming fixes in a single post– you can check it out below.
Destiny 2 is out now for the PS4, Xbox One and PC. Stay tuned to GamingBolt for continued coverage on the game.
