Players will return to Calus’ planet-eating ship.
Destiny 2‘s upcoming DLC expansion, Curse of Osiris, will feature a new type of Raid experience called a Raid Lair.
As detailed during Bungie’s Twitch stream (via Game Informer), a six-player Raid Lair is shorter but “no less challenging” than your standard Raid encounter. Curse of Osiris’ Raid Lair is titled Leviathan, Eater of Worlds. Like the existing Leviathan Raid, Eater of Worlds is also set on Calus’ planet-eating ship; however, the action takes place in the lower areas of the ship rather than all the way at the top.
Eater of Worlds will feature new locations, encounters, puzzles, loot, and a tough boss to battle. It will have a prestige mode, and will also be compatible with Destiny 2’s Guided Games feature.
The Power requirement for the Raid Lair will be 300, with The Leviathan’s Power requirement also boosted up to 300 from 270. Eater of Worlds will go live sometime after Curse of Osiris’ launch on December 5.
Bungie also confirmed that Destiny 2’s second expansion will also feature a new Raid Lair when it launches sometime this coming spring.
