    Rule the Frontier
    The Lawless Frontier calls — an uncharted expanse where power alone isn’t enough. Every choice carries risk, and every alliance comes at a price. Navigate a world of shadows and syndicates, shape your legend through influence, and become the force that tips the balance.
    New Story Missions
    Step into the next chapter of the Fate Saga as a new threat rises across Sol. The Drifter pursues a cryptic warning from the Nine about the Barant Imperium’s deadly new superweapon, the Nightfall Station. Forge uneasy alliances with rival Syndicates and take on dangerous jobs that pull you deeper into a hidden world of shifting loyalties and escalating conflict.
    The Lawless Frontier
    At the heart of Renegades is the Lawless Frontier, where the crime Syndicates of Tharsis battle for control across contested territory. Fireteams take on high-risk assignments using powerful abilities to rain down airstrikes, deploy turrets, call in the Imperium Behemoth, and other game changing combat abilities to turn the tide.
    New Dungeon
    Join forces with Aunor Mahal in a new three-player dungeon to hunt down the acolytes of Dredgen Bael and face deadly defenses in an off-planet dungeon that will challenge even veteran fireteams. Complete the pursuit and forge your own Praxic Blade, a powerful weapon infused by both Light and Dark.

    A solid blend of Destiny-style action and striking Star Wars elements, the Renegades expansion delivers many hours of excellent fun, giving fans plenty to enjoy while waiting for Bungie to finally confirm work on a full-fledged sequel.

    Bungie's live-service wonder isn't dead yet, but Renegades is more of a stabilizing addition rather than an infusion of fresh ideas.

    Destiny 2: Renegades is a Star Wars-flavored expansion that’s cringey and light on content, but what’s there works surprisingly well.

    With Renegades, Bungie tries an ambitious crossover, but it ends up making Destiny 2 lose its uniqueness. The inspiration from the Star Wars saga feels forced, with a weak story, unconvincing characters, and a universe that ends up being corrupted by alien elements. The campaign is short, the activities are repetitive, and new features are virtually nonexistent. It's only saved from complete disaster by its solid gameplay and a few flashes of brilliance here and there. Definitely not enough to revitalize a struggling live service suffering from an obvious identity crisis.

    As of right now, Renegades feels like the expansion that gets Destiny 2 back on track. Whether Bungie can continue that momentum remains to be seen, and much could hinge on what we’re doing in a few weeks, given that we now have less content month-to-month than we used to. Still, with a fun story, great new weapons, and a chaotic new activity stitching it all together, we might just be back. [Review In Progress]
