Destiny 2 will be releasing it's newest expansion tomorrow, the Black Armory. Based on the name, there was already a pretty good chance that the new content would feature an amalgam of new weapons, but it's now officially been confirmed in a new trailer. The trailer is chock full of weapons for new players to (probably) earn. Here's an outline of what's to come:
Name | Weapon Type | Special Perk |
Izanagi's Burden | Sniper Rifle | Consume the entire clip for multiplied damage |
No Feelings | No Feelings | N/A |
Le Monarque | Bow | Precision kills create a poisonous cloud |
Hammerhead | Machine Gun | N/A |
Jötunn | Fusion Rifle | Explosive shots ignite the ground |
Kindled Orchid | Hand Cannon | N/A |
Threat Level | Shotgun | N/A |
Anarchy | Grenade Launcher | Shoots mines that link to form an arc field |
I'm not sure if this is the full set of weapons offered up by the Black Armory, but regardless it's a lot of weapons with a lot of really cool perks. Plus, the end of the trailer gives us a look at another weapon. The new exotic quest, The Draw, has a little teaser and shows off the new exotic weapon, which looks a heck of a lot like The Last Word, a beloved exotic weapon from the first Destiny game. That will undoubtedly please a lot of current players, and give newer ones another legend to chase. The exotic quest is a delayed release, and won't go live until January 29th.
The Black Armory expansion releases tomorrow, December 4th, and is available to year 2 annual pass holders. It features new content, new weapons, and a new raid releasing on December 7th.
