Critics Consensus

Shadowkeep is a major step forward for Destiny 2 and a promising starting point for post-Activision Bungie. However, a weak campaign, brutal grind, convoluted new systems, and a lack of good loot mar the experience.

Not the best, biggest or neatest expansion in the series’ history, Shadowkeep nonetheless sets a solid foundation for what’s to come.

Destiny 2: Shadowkeep is a big step in the right direction for Destiny, even when it feels like the first chapter in a larger story and subjects you to a brutal grind.

Matt Miller (Game Informer)

Not as expansive in initial scope as previous expansions, Shadowkeep’s standout feature is instead the way it redefines the core loop and encourages week-to-week investment.

GAME INFO
Game Description / Storyline:

Something stirs on the surface of our forgotten moon – spiritual remnants of the past, haunted by the memories of their deaths. So strong is their torment that it has begun to reshape reality itself, calling forth waking nightmares that mimic foes once thought conquered by Guardians: warlords, mercenaries, prisoners, and disciples now imbued with dark power, fed by fear itself.
