Destiny 2: Forsaken looks to kill off a fan-favourite character, according to a new story trailer, with spoilers below for those who didn't catch it during Sony's E3 conference. The expansion sees players return to The Reef, which has fallen into lawlessness after a fleet of dangerous Barons escape the Prison of Elders. A mission to put things right goes awry, though, and appears to show the end of Cayde-6 - the chatty Hunter voiced by Nathan Fillion. Eagle-eyed fans have suggested it's actually Prince Uldren, the snide brother of the Queen from Destiny 1 - who does the deed.

Destiny 2’s hardest content, the Prestige Raid Lair, is also your best chance at bumping your overall Light level power up to its highest possible number, 385. Prestige versions of Eater of Worlds and Spire of Stars will soon bump that number up even further, as Senior raid designer Joe Blackburn revealed on the Bungie Blog that the mode will drop a guaranteed 400 Light level weapon when the new patch arrives on July 17.
In a hefty edition of its weekly update, Destiny developer Bungie has announced Prestige versions for both the Spire of Stars and Eater of Worlds raid lairs. There are big changes in the Crucible too - Quickplay will be 6v6, and Rumble is coming back for good.
All this and more goes live on July 17 in update 1.2.3. Solstice of Heroes - a summer event that will be brand new to the Destiny universe - arrives two weeks later, on July 31. Which is a long way after the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere, but never mind.

Between them, Solstice of Heroes and Prestige raid lairs will seemingly be the only way to hit the new power cap of 400. says "the only way to get 400 Power armour before Forsaken" - the game's September expansion - "is by participating in the Summer Solstice event, but the only way to get 400 Power weapons before Forsaken is by completing Prestige Spire of Stars and Eater of Worlds."
We'll get a 400 Power raid weapon each time we complete all the encounters in a Prestige lair that week, and they'll be drawn from the whole raid pool, not just the guns that drop in that particular lair. Each Prestige lair also has its own set of unique armour ornaments and an Exotic Masterwork catalyst that can only be found as a rare drop from that activity.
It's hard to get excited about Destiny 2: Warmind's content, but it is at least headed in the right direction to recapturing what made the original Destiny special.
