Destiny 2: Forsaken is a standalone expansion for Bungie’s online shooter. The story takes the player to investigate a recent unrest in the Reef alongside Cayde-6, where they discover that some of the most wanted criminals have staged an escape from the Prison of Elders. There are new regions to explore, and long-lost Awoken secrets to uncover.
Forsaken makes a number of changes to Destiny 2. Among these is a new competitive 4v4 mode Gambit, a new Dreaming City Raid, as well as additional Strikes , story missions, powers, weapons, and gear, including a new weapon archetype the Legendary Bow.
Do note that players need to own the base Destiny 2 game, as well as the Curse of Osiris and Warmind expansions, to play Forsaken. To this end, Bungie, High Moon Studios, and Activision are releasing Destiny 2: Forsaken – Legendary Collection for $59.99, which includes every expansion so far.

If you miss out, do not despair. According to official sources, all of these items will be attainable through gameplay starting on or about 01.01.19.
