Destiny 2 is a MMORPG looter game that released on September 6, 2017, for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and October 24, 2017, for PC on the Battle.net platform. It is the sequel to the original Destiny and the second game in the Destiny series.

The game features several major gameplay changes from its predecessor, including a revamped weapon slot system (Kinetic, Energy, and Power), fixed subclass perk sets, the introduction of Guided Games for matchmaking, and the ability to start new activities without returning to orbit. NPCs and vendors can also be found outside of social spaces.

The game's content is divided into the Base Game, DLC, and Seasons. Story missions include 'Homecoming,' 'Adieu,' 'Spark,' and many others. End-game activities include Strikes like 'Exodus Crash' and 'The Inverted Spire,' and Raids such as 'Leviathan.' Players can explore various Destinations like the European Dead Zone and Io, and engage in PvP on Crucible Maps like 'Altar of Flame' and 'Midtown.'
