Seasonal Six-Person Multiplayer

Bungie is introducing a new Seasonal Activity to Destiny 2 in Season 14 and it's a little different to what we've seen before.

Traditionally, Destiny 2's multiplayer featured four-man teams but it has recently started to expand into the more universally seen six-person teams. Fireteams have also always been squads of 2-6 players.

Now, it looks like Season 14 of Destiny 2 is going to re-introduce 6-Player matchmaking again with its latest Seasonal Activity.

The Vex might have everyone stuck in a sun-less simulation, but at least we're all stuck in a sun-less simulation with six of our friends, right?

We don't know much about what the new Seasonal Activity is just yet, just that it will be called "Override" and task players with breaching "the network".

" Fireteams of six will use Splicer tech to hack the Vex Network. Uncover their secrets, steal their code, and user their power against them."

Weekly "Expunge" Mission

In addition to this new seasonal activity, there's also going to be a new Weekly Mission added to Destiny 2 in the Season of the Splicer. We don't know too much about it but here's what Bungie has said so far:

" Each week, Guardians will uncover new vulnerabilities within the Vex Network and use Splicer Keys to infiltrate and collapse it from within."

Season of the Splicer Reveal Trailer

If you want to get a better look at what's in-store yourself, we have the Season of the Splicer reveal trailer for you below.

" The Vex have plunged the Last City into an endless night, threatening the safety once found beneath the watchful presence of the Traveler. It is here, bathed in perpetual moonlight, that Ikora reveals the identity of an unlikely ally that may hold the keys to triumphing over this attack."

Destiny 2 Season 14, the Season of the Splicer, is coming on May 11th.
