GINX

Destiny 2 offers a multitude of PvE activities for players to pursue after finishing seasonal and expansion story content. The three-player Strikes are arguably one of the most popular activities of them all; and Grandmaster Nightfall Strikes are the pinnacle difficulty, with possible drops for Ascendant Shards and Adept weapons.

In every season of Destiny 2 Bungie makes six Strikes available to pursue at Grandmaster difficulty, and just below you'll find the rotations and rewards for Destiny 2 in Season of the Witch, starting with the Grandmaster Nightfall Strike available this week.

Destiny 2 Grandmaster Nightfall This Week

The Grandmaster Nightfall in Destiny 2 this week is Fallen S.A.B.E.R and will reward players with Pre Astyanax IV (Adept).

As a reminder, this Grandmaster Nightfall will only be available for one week, from the release of the Weekly Reset on 6 August 2024 until the conclusion of the next Destiny 2 Weekly Reset on 13 August 2024.
