Destiny 2
2024 was supposed to be a victory lap for Destiny 2, with a big expansion paying off a decade of live-service storytelling. And Bungie did end up landing the ship, but it was a bumpy ride and it’s now far from clear if the thing will ever be able to fly again.
Still, The Final Shape offered some of the best missions the game has ever seen, and delivering the epic conclusion fans have been waiting for. Other additions, like the horde mode Onslaught, showed Destiny 2 is still at its best when friends are just shooting tons of aliens together and collecting tons of loot for doing so. Fans got a great raid this year and another great dungeon, and while updates are buggier and Destiny 2‘s future more up in the air than ever, the bones of this shooter are still some of the best around. – Ethan Gach
