Despite the expansion launching on June 4th worldwide, players will have only three days to prep for the raid against The Witness.
Codenamed "Payback," the sequel has reportedly been in development since The Witch Queen, though "heavily in the background."
Those brave enough to defeat the Pantheon can Adept raid and Exotic weapons alongside Deepsight versions of raid weapons.
The sequel will reportedly not have classes, allowing players to choose any ability. It's unknown if Destiny 2 loot will carry over.
Transcendence grants a new unique grenade for Prismatic classes, while new class items can roll with two perks from existing Exotics.
Launching on June 4th, the expansion allows mixing and matching Light and Darkness subclass abilities into one mega build.
An admittedly underwhelming Heavy sniper rifle, the Anti-Extinction set and new Legendary weapons are on sale until tomorrow.
The mode will also have a weekly challenge with "escalating" difficulties, with Bungie revealing more details in the coming weeks.
Eventide Labs, Cirrus Plaza and Dissonance will be available for all players with a separate 3v3 playlist for quick access.
Whisper of the Worm and Outbreak Perfected will receive craftable versions with different perks, stock and barrel options.
The showcase for The Final Shape will be followed up by a new launch trailer for Destiny 2's major upcoming update, Into the Light.
Players can still earn all 12 new BRAVE weapons and enhance their perks, with Onslaught moving to a separate node in Vanguard Ops.
Instead of releasing six weapons on April 9th and the rest weekly until May 21st, they'll all be available by April 30th.
Overseen by Lord Shaxx, the Hall of Champions is where you'll pick up bounties, access Onslaught and even unlock a familiar shader.
Two "classic" Exotic missions are also returning, and there will also be a preview for one of three new PvP maps launching in May.
Future War Cult's Simulator armor set, fresh Legendary Weapons, and a new PvP-focused roll for Hawkmoon are also available.
The second of three planned livestreams for the new update will also showcase new rewards and some Year 1-inspired armor.
"Something will need to happen to curb costs unless The Final Shape does so well to cover the gap and people can move to Marathon."
A MOBA-like title codenamed Gummy Bears also exists but is currently in a "holding pattern" due to ongoing uncertainty within Bungie.
Joe Ziegler, who worked as a director on Riot Games' Valorant, is now game director for the upcoming extraction shooter.
