This week on Tower Casuals: The Destiny Podcast

As Marathon draws closer, concern is growing within the Destiny 2 community.

This week on Tower Casuals: The Destiny Podcast, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Corey Dirrig⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Josh Finney⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ break down Bungie’s announcement of a major three-month delay to Destiny 2’s next update and what it means for Guardians heading into the summer.

The upcoming update—formerly Shadow and Order—is undergoing significant revisions, expanding its scope with major quality-of-life improvements, new endgame systems, and a full rebrand ahead of its new launch date on June 9, 2026.

Our discussion covers what’s changing, why the delay is happening, how Marathon’s release timeline factors into Bungie’s priorities, and what players will be doing in-game between now and June.

We also discuss this week’s TWID, diving into ongoing seasonal events, Bright Dust rewards, community challenges, Iron Banner updates, Guardian fashion highlights, and the continued work of the New Player Guide for Destiny.

With communication shifting to regular updates through TWIDs and social channels, we talk about whether Bungie’s plan is enough to keep Guardians engaged—or worried—during this long stretch.

All this and more on this episode of Tower Casuals.

Full Disclosure: Bungie and SIE have provided the Tower Casuals Team with a code for Marathon Deluxe Edition.
