Destiny 2 The Final Shape trailer all but confirms the series finale

Destiny 2: The Final Shape is looking more and more like it will be a triumph for Bungie. And now, after the recently released trailer, players have even more to get excited about with a confirmed new location and the return of some familiar faces to the Destiny franchise. With everything culminating, will this really be the end of Destiny 2?

The new trailer for the Final Shape titled, "Journey into The Traveler Trailer" should have fans thrilled for what is coming in the new expansion. The new trailer shows old faces returning to the series, like Savathun, The Witch Queen, Empress Caiatl, and Mithrax, Kell of Light. It also looks to feature Cayde-6 prominently, one of the most beloved characters in all of Destiny.

Based on the name of the trailer and the overall story arc, it appears all but certain that this will take players into the heart of the Traveler itself to stop an infection of the light that is spreading, threatening humanity. It looks to be an epic ending to a game that has been out for nearly eight years.

This is still unconfirmed and a theory, but today's trailer seems to point more and more towards The Final Shape being the ending of Destiny 2. Whether it is the literal Avengers of Destiny being assembled, the breakdown of the subclasses that the game has long been framed around, or the long-awaited final fight with the Witness looming, it seems all signs point to a grand finale. And with Cayde returning to join you, what could be a more poetic end?

This also would go along with several fan theories that have been circulating as of late, claiming that Destiny 3 is already in the works under the codename, "Payback."

But, again, as of the release of this article, nothing is yet confirmed about the place The Final Shape will play in the overall roadmap of Destiny 2 or Destiny 3. As more information comes to light, we will be sure to update you here at esports.gg. Stay tuned!
