However, two lackluster seasonal Episodes and massive layoffs at Bungie have begun a worrying trend.

Each one of these expansions will have two mini-free updates.

The rest of the details have largely been hidden, but big changes have been hinted at.

However, there are a handful of reasons why this is the unlikeliest change.

Outside the fact Bungie has stayed committed toDestiny 2, it also lacks the manpower.

Much of the studio is working on the extraction shooterMarathon, leaving just enough for the MMO looter shooter.

The easiest thing to do would be to bring back old raids with refurbishments.

Darkness Subclasses have drastically changed the game while also moving along the story ofDestiny.

Going intoThe Final Shape,the two predicted options were a Taken Subclass or Pyramid Subclass.

The more advanced option would be adding new grenades and melee attacks to help diversify the Prismatic build options.

Thus, it would be an interesting change in the main game to offer both perspectives.

The caveat to this is that it has to be limited to PvE to avoid balance issues in PvP.

The prices are still a bit on the high side, but that is understandable for optional cosmetics.

The studio has also been doing great at bringing in big-name collaborations, the most recent being withStar Wars.

The best way to continue this success is by continuing these collaborations and justifying prices.

The collaborations are easy profit-wise, simply having a good partner and a quality product should bring in profit.

The price issue is a bit harder to fix, but not impossible.

Recent changes have improved the game mode, but it is still not at the same level.

The prime enemies of Trials have been the lack of PvP love/balance and an inconsistent anti-cheat.

The anti-cheat problem is harder to solve, but Bungie has been slowly improving there.

However, that has for the most part been a low viability bang out.

Many of the other weapon types are in a good spot.

Combined with a move to a new galaxy could mean a new key in is in play.

Melee would be the areaDestiny 2has left alone the most, but making melee weapons end-game viable is tricky.

In this regard,any new weapon types should be focused on range.

Another idea that could circumvent this is dual-wielding.

However, this option would need precise tuning and possible limitations to where and when it can be used.

Gaming

A good year that proves theDestinyfranchise can still function with its new limitations.

This keeps the loot pool functions that they currently have but adds a guaranteed reward for the time investment.

2025, which has already started with thedeath of a fan-favorite character, is a huge year for theDestinyfranchise.

These ten changes would be a great start to whatDestiny 2could bring in 2025.
