Sony has heavily discountedDestiny 2’s newLightfallexpansion, bringing it down to its lowest price yet, but only on PlayStation consoles. WhileLightfallhas proven to be another controversial expansion forDestiny 2, it’s still quite popular. As such, someDestiny 2players may have seen the response at launch and decided to wait for a sale. That opportunity has now arrived, but only for those on PlayStation.Lightfallhas proven to be one ofDestiny 2’s most controversial expansions yet. On the day ofLightfall’s launch,Destiny 2set a record for concurrent players on Steam. The success ofThe Witch Queenexpansion and its seasonal content paid off. Yet there was a cost for that popularity.Lightfall’s reviews on Steamquickly averaged out as “Mostly Negative” as players decided they were unhappy with the expansion’s campaign. Still, over 180,000Destiny 2players are logging in to playDestiny 2a day on Steam.RELATED:Watch a Destiny 2 Lightfall Player Beat the New Raid Boss SoloThose wanting to see whatLightfallis all about can now do so at a discounted price on PlayStation consoles. A limited-time sale is being held forDestiny 2: Lightfall, dropping the price of the expansion from $49.99 to $33.49. A discount is also applied to theLightfall + Annual Passbundle, though it’s just 25% instead of 33%. It can be purchased for $74.99 instead of $99.99 and includes the full year ofLightfallcontent that Bungie has planned.
If some interested players would rather pick up the previousDestiny 2expansions first, or alongsideLightfall, theDestiny 2: Legacy Collectionbundle is also on sale. TheDestiny 2: Legacy Collectionbundle includesShadowkeep,Beyond Light, andThe Witch Queen, thethree premium expansions prior toLightfalland most of the content players need to “catch up.” It’s discounted by 50%, from $59.99 down to $29.99.
The sale won’t last forever, though. The discount onDestiny 2expansions for PlayStation platforms will run from now through April 12, so it has two weeks remaining. That should be plenty of time to decide whether to jump intoDestiny 2, whether as a returning or new player. Once the sale is done, though, it’s unclear when Sony will discountLightfallagain.
As for whyDestiny 2: Lightfalland theLegacy Collectionare only discounted on PlayStation consoles, there’s no confirmed explanation. What makes sense is that PlayStation owns Bungie and wantsDestiny 2players on PlayStation consoles. Using a PlayStation-exclusive sale is one way to attract players who might be considering other platforms, instead. At leastDestiny 2supports cross-progression now.
Destiny 2is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
