Now back from the dead, Eramis is recruiting old pirate lords of Eliksni legends to recover lost relics that hold great power. It's your job to gather your crew and stop her again in what is a pirate-themed adventure.

Destiny 2 Season of the Plunder Activities

Unlike previous Destiny 2 seasons, Season of the Plunder adds three activities for you to partake in. First up is the new six-player activity called  Ketchcrash, in which you go head-to-head with Eramis and her pirate crew.

Next, is the three-player activity called Expedition, in which you assemble treasure maps, dig for treasure, and get it back to your ship while fighting off Eramis' pirate crew members.

Last but not least is the weekly mission for Destiny 2 Season of the Plunder called Pirate Hideouts, in which you will invade pirate hideouts to battle Eramis' pirate lords and loot their hidden powerful relics.

Destiny 2 Season of the Plunder Weapons

Destiny 2 Season of the Plunder adds a brand new Exotic Fusion Rifle called Delicate Tomb, that you can instantly unlock by purchasing the season pass.

As with every new Destiny 2 season, Season of the Plunder adds a new pool of Seasonal weapons. This includes a new Shotgun, Automatic Rifle, SMG, Side Arm, Fusion Rifle, and a Legendary Machine Gun.
