Bungie, the developer behind Destiny 2, has announced a new feature for the game – a weekly quest system called Wishes. Set to launch on January 30, this addition is poised to significantly enrich the Destiny 2 gaming experience. Players will have the opportunity to undertake distinct missions each week, with the potential to earn exclusive rewards including exotic items, raid weapons, and other valuable finds. This update is creating a buzz among the game's community, offering fresh and engaging content for players to explore.

The introduction of these quests adds another layer to the already rich tapestry of Destiny 2's ongoing Season of the Wish. Players will be able to engage in these quests through interactions with the enigmatic character Mara Sov. The quests promise to deliver a variety of challenging activities, set in the visually stunning and lore-rich environment of The Dreaming City. Gamers will have to navigate through demanding scenarios, such as the Legend Lost Sector or delve into intricate dungeons like The Shattered Throne. Completion of these quests will not only test players' skills but also reward them with a Wish Token. This token serves as a key to unlock a trove of valuable items, categorized into three distinct groups.

Guardian Customization & Extended Season Updates in Destiny 2

The announcement of the weekly quest system comes shortly after another significant update that Destiny 2 rolled out – the Guardian customization feature. This much-awaited enhancement allows players to personalize their Guardians in various ways, offering options to change body type, face, hair, and even add unique markings. This feature is a direct response to the community's desire for more control over their characters' appearances, further immersing players in the Destiny 2 universe.

Bungie's commitment to keeping the game fresh and engaging is evident in their strategy to extend the Season of the Wish. This extension, in part due to the delay of the anticipated expansion, The Final Shape, has been filled with a variety of events and updates. Regular seasonal events like the Guardian Games and Moments of Triumph provide ongoing challenges and rewards. Moreover, significant updates are on the horizon, such as the introduction of a new map pack for the Crucible coming in May, and additional content titled Into The Light.

The Wishes system, detailed in Bungie's latest blog post, will span a six-week period. This system not only adds depth to the current season but also ensures that players have exciting content to look forward to even after the launch of The Final Shape. The rewards available through this system are diverse and appealing:
