Destiny 2 Unveils Spooky New Armor for Halloween Extravaganza

Destiny 2's Festival of the Lost 2025: A Ghoulish Choice Amidst Community Concerns

Destiny 2 players face a chilling decision: choose between "Slashers" or "Spectres" armor sets inspired by iconic horror figures for the upcoming Festival of the Lost event. This year's event pits terrifying designs against each other, with options like Jason Voorhees (Titans), Ghostface (Hunters), and a Scarecrow Warlock for the Slasher faction. Spectre enthusiasts can opt for the Babadook (Titans), La Llorona (Hunters), and a highly anticipated Slenderman Warlock set.

While the reveal of these new armor sets generated excitement, it's overshadowed by growing unrest within the Destiny 2 community. Episode Revenant's conclusion is marred by persistent bugs and a noticeable decline in player engagement. Issues such as broken tonics – a core mechanic of the season – have fueled frustration, despite Bungie's efforts to address many of the problems.

Bungie's announcement, appearing in their first 2025 blog post, surprised many by focusing on a Halloween event still ten months away. This preemptive reveal, while showcasing exciting new content, has been met with calls for the developers to address the game's current state and dwindling player base. The community's desire for acknowledgment of these ongoing issues is palpable. Furthermore, the previously losing Wizard armor from the 2024 Festival of the Lost will be made available during Episode Heresy.

Key Points:

  • Players vote on Slasher vs. Spectre armor sets for Festival of the Lost 2025.
  • Designs include iconic horror villains like Jason, Slenderman, Ghostface, Babadook, and La Llorona.
  • Community frustration remains high due to ongoing bugs and declining player numbers in Destiny 2.
