Also, since it&#8217;s a new season, there might be a queue when you log in for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Most Destiny 2 seasons are three months long, so expect this one to end on 31st May 2023. Like previous seasons, Season of Defiance should also have a free season pass and a premium season pass for you to progress. There should also be a new batch of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/destiny-2\/weekly-challenges\">seasonal challenges<\/a> and triumphs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"rsp-embed-container\" contenteditable=\"false\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en_US\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Rise, Queen&#8217;s Guard. <\/p>\n<p>Defy The Witness. <\/p>\n<p>Season of Defiance begins February 28, 2023. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BTpyfeNH4Q\">pic.twitter.com\/BTpyfeNH4Q<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Destiny 2 (@DestinyTheGame) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DestinyTheGame\/status\/1625221329342410752?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 13, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" async><\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>While Bungie hasn&#8217;t released more concrete details about Season of Defiance, it did reveal the key art, which suggests the return of Queen Mara Sov.
