Here’s everything you should look to do before The Final Shape in Destiny 2.
Destiny 2: The Final Shape officially arrives on June 4 and will be bringing massive updates to the Bungie looter shooter. With only a few days left before its release, here’s everything you need to do in the game’s current state to prepare for the massive expansion.
#10: Ensure you have enough available storage for Destiny 2: The Final Shape
In the final This Week in Destiny beforeThe Final Shape, Destiny 2 devs shared the storage requirements for the long-awaited expansion, and they are pretty staggering. If you are planning on playing the new expansion on Steam, you’ll need 300 GB of storage. Prepare accordingly.
#9: Pre-order The Final Shape to get rewards
If you are fully planning on playing the new expansion, why notpre-order? If you do, you’ll earn exclusive in-game rewards. Once you’ve pre-ordered, these will show up in your Special Delivery box at the Tower. Rewards include an Exotic Fusion Rifle, a ship, a ghost shell, and some player banners.

#8: Turn in all of your legendary shards
Legendary shards are going away in The Final Shape, so verify to get them all turned in before the scheduled downtime on June 3. You can do this with Rahool in the Tower or with Hawthorne if you are in need of some Raid Banners. Use them before you lose them!
#7: Complete the Lightfall Annual Pass and any previous missions
If you have not already, you have a few more days to complete the Annual Pass for Lightfall in Destiny 2. You can do so by earning XP through completing any of the game’s offered bounties or quests. Of, if you haven’t yet, go back and play through some of the game’s older campaign missions to ensure you have all of the rewards you can get.
#6: Stockpile some completed bounties
A somewhat cheeky way that Destiny 2 players can get a leg up on XP heading into a new expansion is by stockpiling some unclaimed completed bounties, then turning them all in for an XP boost at the start of a new expansion. However, seeing as The Final Shape will be a massive update and several vendors are being resorted, this may not work as it has in the past. But, if you are going to try this, make sure they are destination vendors, not ones in the Tower.
