Destiny 2’s next expansion titled Beyond Light has been delayed from a September 22, 2020 launch to a November 10, 2020 launch.
Bungie made the announcement of the expansion’s delay via a blog post on their official website stating that “The past few months have been a challenge and will continue to be during this pandemic.”
“We have a powerful story to tell and incredible new features that we’re really excited for players to experience.

This will be the first time a Destiny 2 season will run for more than 50 days, so we’ll see what Bungie has in store for their player base to fill in the gaps as they prepare for the release of Beyond Light.
