Destiny 2fans have found some cool callbacks to a classicDestinystrike inDestiny 2’s summer content, leading up to the next major expansionDestiny 2: Beyond Light.
TheSeason of Arrivals content, which Bungie detailed earlier in the year, has kept players busy trying to acquire the Forerunner title by unlocking Triumphs in the game. One such method is by completing the Interference missions: Ritual, Relic, and Crystal.

Over onDestiny’s subreddit, a user by the name ofTylerFortierPhotonoticed that all three missions reference a strike called The Sunless Cell inDestiny 1. In the Ritual encounter, players must capture 2 plates on both the left and right side of a room, a premise somewhat similar to capturing plates in theDestiny 1strike.
The Relic mission includes a Thrallway section, with enemies charging at the player on the curvature of the bridge, another section similar to The Sunless Cell, which included its own Thrallway bridge with enemies attacking Guardians in a similar manner. The Crystal encounter includes a Hive Knight that will teleport away from players then reappear and attack, not uncommon for a Hive Knight, but yet another reference to theDestiny 1Strike. The three missions are just a small portion of the summer content that players are playing through with hopes toobtain the Solstice of Heroes Armor Glow Upgrade.
Meanwhile,Destiny 2: Beyond Lightwillsunset several several Crucible modescurrently in the game. As part of theDestinyContent Vault, which removes modes in the game to be reworked and reintroduced later, Bungie will be removing Supremacy, Countdown, and Lockdown Crucible modes among others. Also being removed is Scorched, Momentum Control, and Doubles.
With the launch ofDestiny 2: Beyond Lightnearing, more info about the expansion is expected to be revealed this week. BothBungie and Geoff Keighley announced that a new look at the expansionwill be revealed at the all-digital event Gamescom happening on August 27th. Gamescom, like many other fan events this year, has had to change plans due to COVID-19.
