Destiny 2’s second expansion, Warmind, launches May 8, or whatever

Gone are the days when Bungie would put out teases and trailers for its expansions, apparently. Last night, it practically stealth-announced Destiny 2’s next big thing in the middle of a roadmap.

“On May 8, with the beginning of Season Three, we’re also launching the second expansion to Destiny 2,” Bungie says. “It’s called Warmind, and it will send you to new places to meet new heroes and battle new enemies. You’ll earn new loot and master new activities. Today, we’re naming it and dating it. You’ll learn more in a reveal stream on April 24.”

The rest of the announcement is similarly low-key. Warmind will bring private matches, more vault space, and multiple weapons changes, followed by a summer update with a new seasonal event, bounties, and guild chat on PC, and then season four in September.

“Season Three marks the beginning of a new plan for how we deliver Crucible content. For every player of Destiny 2, we’ll be releasing all of the new Crucible Maps being developed for Warmind into matchmaking. The same goes for the maps we released with Curse of Osiris. To keep the community in the Crucible unified, everyone will see new arenas in matchmade playlists like Quickplay, Competitive, Trials of the Nine, Iron Banner, as well as the new weekly rotators that include Rumble and Mayhem. That means more opponents for everyone. With the arrival of Private Matches, players will need to purchase each Expansion to have exclusive access to play those Crucible maps with other players in a private match.”
