Understanding Destiny 2's DLCs can leave both beginners and veterans scratching their heads. The game has an abundance of content for sale, and it can be difficult to know which DLC to purchase.
I wish Bungie would do something about this!
There’s only so much you can do in Destiny 2 as a free-to-play guardian, so if you want to experience the game to its fullest, you’re going to have to plunk down some cash. Here’s a quick look at all of the purchasable content in Destiny 2, excluding cosmetics in the Eververse store.
Expansions are by far the biggest updates, with a campaign, several new weapons and armors, and various activities tied to that destination. Lightfall and The Final Shape also each bring a new subclass (Strand and Prismatic, respectively). Expansions give you access to exotic weapons and armor, but you have to get them from the right sources.
Episodes are the seasons of the game. Destiny 2 has three episodes per expansion cycle, each lasting four months. This year's episodes will disappear after The Final Shape ends.
