Caiatl is already a right wrong’un in my books, having joined the coup against dear old decadent dad. Though I suppose she deserves indirect thanks because Calus’s exile on the Leviathan did lead to him encountering the Darkness and becoming enthusiastic about the end of existence, turning him into the planet-drinking monstrosity we know and adore. I miss him, now he’s shuffled off into the Destiny Content Vault.
Cabal forces are the focus of Chosen’s new seasonal mode, Battlegrounds. It’s a three-player mode (with matchmaking) where, Bungie say, “Guardians will engage in ritual combat against Caiatl’s chosen warriors.” So maybe some sort of arena battle doodad? Would hoping for a survival mode be too much?
Guardians geared up in the new Praefectus sets.
A new season means new loot, including an Exotic bow with homing arrows, new and reissued weapons, new armour sets, new mods, and a new battle pass progression track and that. The widely-liked Umbral Engram loot system, which let us influence the contents and attritibutes of drops,will returntoo - and should stick around. That’ll be nice.
A new Strike is arriving with Season 13 too, set aboard a giant moving Cabal fortress, though it won’t be here right at the start. Two Strikes returning from the first game, Fallen S.A.B.E.R. and Devil’s Lair, will be here when it kicks off. No mention of new Crucible or Gambit maps, mind. That’s a shame, Crucible is in a real sorry state lately, needing new maps and big balance changes that Bungie are dragging their heels on.
