Guardians, gear up! The latest 'This Week in Destiny' (TWID) update from Bungie dropped like a Cabal drop pod on unsuspecting players, packed with juicy details on current and upcoming Destiny 2 events. From Arms Week's shiny new toys to the return of Trials of Osiris, there's plenty to keep us busy in the solar system.
Arms Week Brings Fresh Firepower
Right now, Arms Week is in full swing until August 5, 2025, spotlighting Hand Cannons with the fierce Phoneutria Fera archetype and Volatile Mods. A brand-new Strand Rifle also joins the arsenal, alongside daily and weekly challenges. Head to Ada-1 in The Portal to snag rewards and browse the event shop—time to upgrade that loadout!
Solstice and Trials Heat Up Soon
Next week, the Solstice event ignites for two weeks with Solar-inspired modifiers like Hot Potato and a chaotic Solstice Scorched Crucible Playlist. Meanwhile, Trials of Osiris (aka the weekend sweatfest where Guardians test their PvP mettle) returns on August 1, 2025, with fresh armor sets and five new weapons, including a Spread Shot Hand Cannon. Get ready to grind for Lighthouse glory!
More Updates from TWID
The Coil activity from Season of the Wish is now in The Portal with customizable paths and difficulty tiers for better loot. Bungie’s also tweaking The Edge of Fate with ability tuning and Exotic armor changes, while cracking down on cheating in The Desert Perpetual raid. Plus, a Budget Your Build event hits this weekend on August 2-3, 2025, with global streamer teams and giveaways. Time to get stomped in Trials again, or will you rise to the challenge?
What’s Exciting in This TWID?
I’m hyped for that Strand Rifle—could it shake up meta builds? Check the full details on the official Bungie website and let us know what you’re most stoked for!
