BecauseDestiny 2is one of the few long-standing live service games on the market, it is also one of the most constantly updated in the form of seasonal content and yearly expansions. This model keeps the game very much alive, to the point that it is one of the most played across all platforms and regions, with peaks often happening at the same time as big releases, such asthe upcoming The Witch Queen expansion. However, becauseDestiny 2is updated at this rate, this also means that its file size is constantly increasing - often threatening the levels of performance that fans have come to expect.
This is the main reason behind Bungie’s decision to introduce the Destiny Content Vault in conjunction with Beyond Light, so as to remove old locations and bits of content fromDestiny 2to make room for new things. While the reasoning is sound and it does make sense, and while it also showed once many planets were eventually vaulted, many key story events are inevitably lost in the process. As such, the new player experience forDestiny 2is not great, and returning players are often confused by the timeline of events in the universe.

A Reddit user by the name of Niven5111 shared a post on the platform to announce that a new website calledDestiny Historyis now live as a fan-made project and that it is a collection of all the main events fromDestiny 2’s launch until The Witch Queen. The website allows players to explore what happened all the way back duringThe Red War campaign, which was the introduction to vanillaDestiny 2, and also an important set of plot points that new players cannot experience any longer.
This is particularly helpful because players can find all the information they need on a single website, also including basic notes about the characters involved in the expansion or Season that’s being looked up. WithThe Witch Queen’s release, Bungie will also be vaulting the Tangled Shore, the Forsaken campaign, and all ofDestiny 2’s seasonal content from Year 4. However, this new project can help players know more about old content and see what they missed out on.
Ideally, all ofDestiny 2’s long history should be implemented in the game itself through a timeline of events, butDestiny Historybeing a thing can benefit the entire community. Another fan-made project emerged in the past weeks in the form ofDestiny: Solas, which lets players relive iconic moments in theDestinyuniverse, and it too may end up featuring The Red War campaign at some point because even vaulted content can be crucial to the plot.
Destiny 2is now available on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
