Bungie hosted a livestream for Destiny 2: Warmind today, discussing what to expect when it drops alongside Season 3 in May.
Players can expect Destiny 2: Warmind to include new activities, weapons, gear, endgame content and an all-new story.
Bungie said there will be plenty of content for new, returning, causal, and competitive players
The expansion will take players to the new destination, Hella Basin, set within the frozen pole of Mars. Along with traversing a cold landscape filled with glaciers, players will also explore rocky caverns and Hive infested caves.
Warmind also features the final Raid Lair of the Leviathan, a new Hive Faction, and end-game ritual Escalation Protocol.
Here’s the storyline:
Ana Bray, a Guardian long thought lost, searches for a connection to her past… one that could be hidden forever beneath the polar ice cap of Mars. As Golden Age satellites begin slamming back to ground, glaciers begin to thaw, revealing the core of the Warmind Rasputin – and an ancient Hive army bent on its destruction. Now free, the Hive swarm in service to their god.
