Months after seemingly giving up on Destiny 2, Bungie now says it’s planning to restore vaulted content in the game like campaigns, destinations, and raids. The decision reverses the Destiny Content Vault that Bungie created six years ago, controversially removing older content from Destiny 2 that players had paid to access.
“We understand that removing these experiences had a lasting impact on player trust and enjoyment of Destiny,” admits Bungie. “We cannot change the decision we made, but we can acknowledge its impact and do the work to make it right by restoring these important parts of Destiny’s history.“
All Destiny 2 players will get access to the vaulted content, but it’s not a simple switch of a button for Bungie. The developer made big changes to Destiny 2 with the Beyond Light expansion, meaning it has to go back and update lighting, encounters, combatants, and other underlying systems for this older content. “That work will take time, but it is necessary to ensure returning content meets the stability and gameplay standards of Destiny 2 today,” says Bungie.
