How Long Will Lightfall Last?
Destiny 2’s latest expansion, Lightfall, has finally arrived, bringing with it a new campaign, raid, and plenty of exciting content for players to enjoy. But how long will this new content last, and what can players expect from the expansion’s runtime?
Main Campaign Runtime
According to Bungie, the main campaign in Lightfall should take around 5-7 hours to complete on Normal difficulty. This means that players can expect a relatively short campaign, which is similar to previous Destiny 2 expansions. However, it’s worth noting that the campaign’s runtime may vary depending on individual player skill levels and playing styles.
Raid and Endgame Content
In addition to the campaign, Lightfall also brings a new raid, the Root of Nightmares, which is expected to offer a significant amount of replay value for players. The raid is designed to take around 4-6 hours to complete on the first attempt, with subsequent attempts taking less time as players become more familiar with the fight.
But what about endgame content? Destiny 2’s expansions often include a variety of activities and challenges that keep players engaged long after the campaign is complete. Lightfall is no exception, and players can expect to find a range of activities, including:
- Daily and Weekly Challenges: A variety of challenges that will test players’ skills and reward them with exclusive gear and rewards.
- Nightfalls: A set of challenging activities that will push players to their limits and reward them with high-level gear.
- Raid Lairs: Smaller, more manageable versions of the raid that can be completed with a smaller group of players.
- Seasonal Activities: A range of seasonal activities that will be available for a limited time only and will reward players with exclusive gear and rewards.
Vaulting Content
With each new expansion, Bungie typically vaults a selection of older content to make way for new activities and challenges. In Lightfall, the following activities will be vaulted:
- Season of the Risen: A selection of activities from the Season of the Risen, including the Haunted Fragment and the Risen Engine.
- Season of Plunder: A selection of activities from the Season of Plunder, including the Plundered Treasures and the Plundered Shores.
- Season of the Seraph: A selection of activities from the Season of the Seraph, including the Seraph’s Blessing and the Seraph’s Wrath.
Cost and Availability
Lightfall is available now for purchase on all platforms, including PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. The expansion costs $50, although players who purchase the season pass will receive a number of exclusive rewards and benefits.
Conclusion
Lightfall is a significant expansion for Destiny 2, offering a new campaign, raid, and a range of endgame activities to keep players engaged. While the campaign may be relatively short, the expansion’s runtime is expected to be significant, with a range of activities and challenges that will keep players busy for months to come. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran of the Destiny 2 series or a new player, Lightfall is an excellent addition to the game’s ever-growing library of content.
