3 Reasons to Buy the Destiny 2 Annual Pass & 2 Reasons Not To

The Destiny 2 Forsaken Annual Pass is an add-on to the new Forsaken Expansion that adds in three new episodes of content over the next year. This in addition to what you get with Forsaken.

You can buy this as a bundle, or you can wait and buy it as a standalone purchase. While we know a lot about Forsaken, we’re still learning about the Destiny 2 Forsaken Annual Pass. This is a new option for Destiny 2, and while it is not built-into the Forsaken DLC, you do need Forsaken to buy the Annual Pass. You also need the first two expansions.

It’s basically an season pass for an expansion pass. Here’s what you get and our advice on if you should buy it now or wait.

What’s in the Destiny 2 Forsaken Annual Pass?

With the Destiny 2 Forsaken Annual Pass you get three DLC releases over the next year. This includes new activities, new content, and it opens up the ability to earn more weapons, armor and gear. The three episodes take place in bubbles, not on new planets. These include;

• Black Armory – Winter 2018
• Joker’s Wild – Spring 2019
• Penumbra – Summer 2019

We’ve seen a lot of Black Armory leaks, but there is no official information yet. We expect to see more about Black Armory in the next week or two, with a release likely in late December.

During these releases you will get activities and content only available to Annual Pass owners. These include seasonal rewards and new Triumphs to complete. All of the content will come before August 31, 2019.

Is the Destiny 2 Forsaken Annual Pass Worth Buying?

We’ll help you decide if you should spend $30 more on the Forsaken edition with the annual pass, or if you should wait and see how everything comes together to buy the Annual Pass for $5 more than the bundle. A deal is a deal, but when you only save $5, it’s going to weigh differently for each player.

• Buy The Destiny 2 Forsaken Annual Pass if You’ll Play Destiny Another Year
• Buy as a Bundle to Save $5
• Buy If You Love Forsaken
• Wait for More Information About the Annual Pass
• Wait for Destiny 2 Annual Pass Reviews

We’ll look at each of these reasons closer to help you decide if you should buy the Annual Pass today when you buy Forsaken, or if you should wait and see what is coming.
