How to start Destiny 2: Shadowkeep - get started with the main story

After months of lead-up, and a tantalising delay, Desinty ii: Shadowkeep is finally here! Here's how to admission the new lunar location and pay Eris Morn a visit on the Moon.

How to offset Destiny two: Shadowkeep

Unlike a lot of DLC expansions, Destiny 2: Shadowkeep doesn't require a separate install. Once you've bought the game from your corresponding storefront, you should have access.

All yous need to practice is update your game like normal, and you lot'll have the files on your PC or panel ready and waiting. For example, on PlayStation go to your Destiny 2 game icon, press "Options", and then "Check for Update", and you lot'll download the data you need. Get through your similar procedure for Xbox One or Steam.

Once yous've made it into the game - Bungie has said that players (especially on console) may feel difficulties logging in correct as the expansion launches - you merely need to:

Open upwards your Destinations menu and look to the right, there you'll see "The Moon".
Select the Moon and you lot'll automatically queue up a new mission "A Mysterious Disturbance".
Following the launch, you'll meet the opening cutscene, which I won't spoil here

Now that you've started on Shadowkeep, you'll have access to all of the interesting new features that the expansion brings. There's the revamped Armor ii.0 and mods system, which we have a full page run-down of here.

And speaking of mods there will also be new seasonally rotating Artifacts - like The Eye of the Gatelord - which dish out powerful mods as you progress.

What's more, by completing new activities chosen "Nightmare Hunts" yous can collect "Nightmare Essence" to power the "Lectern of Enchantment".
