With not long to go now before Destiny 2 comes back online for the Final Shape launch, Bungie has warned of a few known issues that will launch with the new content. With issues that will potentially impact progression, audio playback, and other elements of the game, here’s what Destiny 2 players need to know.
Most importantly, players who are taking on the Final Shape campaign in a fireteam should avoid joining missions in progress or swapping characters mid-campaign to ensure progress is correctly recorded.
Bungie also warns that the game won’t currently work with 3D audio, and any players with 3D audio enabled won’t get any sound from the game. Players are advised to disable 3D audio settings, including Windows Sonic for Headphones or Dolby Atmos, until this is fixed.
A number of other minor issues that will launch with the game include placeholder art appearing instead of final pieces, and some small errors in descriptions for items and abilities. Check out the full list below.
The Final Shape will launch after an extended downtime at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET today, June 4, though players can preload the new expansion while the game is down. After the expansion is live, progress on known issues will continue to be updated through the Top Issues page. Bungie also encourages players to report issues with the new content through its Help Forum if they encounter any with the new content.
