Destiny 2 Lightfall expansion is on the horizon, and Bungie has finally started to unveil more about this ambitious next chapter in the game. At The Game Awards 2022, we got our first gameplay trailer for Lightfall, and now we have some more interesting info about some of the changes coming with this new expansion.

For those unaware, the Lightfall expansion will add a new subclass and introduce players to the neon-soaked city of Neomuna. Naturally, weapon meta will also change, and Bungie has outlined some of the exotics that are getting reworked for this upcoming Blade Runner-Esque adventure.

Several exotic weapons are getting overhauled for Destiny 2 Lightfall.

On DCP Podcast, as reported by thegamepost, Bungie's senior designer lead Chris Proctor, and Associate Weapons Designer Mercules discussed weapons sandbox ahead of the launch of Lightfall expansion.
On being asked if any of the game's exotics are getting reworked for Lightfall, Proctor said, "So, actually, we’re doing a big part on subclass 3.0 verbs on exotic weapons. There’s a whole bunch of changes, most of them are of that type, though."

Proctor also confirmed a list of exotic weapons that are getting overhauled in the Lightfall expansion. They are:

  • Leviathan's Breath (Bow)
  • Sunshot (Hand Cannon)
  • One Thousand Voices (Fusion Rifle)
  • Polaris Lance (Scout Rifle)
  • Prometheus Lens (Trace Rifle)
  • Ruinous Effigy (Trace Rifle)
  • Two-Tailed Fox (Rocket Launcher)
  • The Queenbreaker (Linear Fusion Rifle)

Aside from these, more exotic weapons are set to be reworked for the Lightfall expansion, but Bungie is holding off from revealing more details until a later date.

As for new catalysts, Proctor said, "I think we will just keep the catalysts to ourselves for the moment."

Destiny 2 Lightfall launches on 28th February 2023, so fans won't have to wait much longer to find out what's in store for them in the next chapter of the game's light and the darkness saga.
