With the brand new recreation mode Onslaught, in addition to new modes reminiscent of Pantheon nonetheless but to come back, gamers are positive to be busy up till we attain The Last Form. Nonetheless, the story of Future 2 doesn’t finish there, and we’re going to reply the query: when does Episode 1: Echoes begin in Future 2?
Bungie’s weekly weblog put up on April 18, 2024, revealed loads of fascinating information concerning the upcoming finish to the Mild and Darkish Saga: The Last Form. Together with touching up on some Into the Mild content material, the put up formally revealed when gamers would be capable of soar into the brand new raid coming together with the enlargement.
Can Episode 1: Echoes begin earlier than TFS ends in Future 2?
The Last Form raid will launch on June 7, 2024, a mere three days after the precise enlargement launches. That is not like most expansions that normally give folks per week to play the story and grind for any new gear/weapons. And whereas there’s uproar in the neighborhood about this transformation (particularly after the latest delay of the DLC), it is perhaps for a superb cause. As reported by Future Bulletin on X (previously Twitter) throughout a group summit that Bungie hosted in 2023, they mentioned “Ep 1 can’t occur till after TFS story had ended, narratively.”
This traces up with the rumors and supposed leaks that there might be a 12-man exercise gamers can take part in as the ultimate mission of The Last Form, solely after the raid has come out and been overwhelmed. What’s extra, simply as I used to be writing this text, Mission Lead on D2 expansions Catarina Macedo posted on X/Twitter as effectively to make clear the reasoning behind the schedule shift.
She talks in regards to the inner ideas of the devs, in addition to what it is best to deal with to expertise your entire finish of the Mild and Darkish Saga. She additionally lets us know that the primary episode, Echoes, will launch in week two of The Last Form. So if we keep in mind what Future Bulletin reported, The Last Form’s story will come to a detailed within the very first week the enlargement releases. I do know I’m greater than curious to know if the brand new Dread enemies will stay on this planet of Future after The Witness has been dispatched.
