Tucked away within the patch notes of the newest This Week at Bungie, a longstanding Future 2 group request has not less than partially been fulfilled: Each Guardian is getting 100 additional storage slots of their vault, bringing the whole to 600.
That will not sound like an enormous deal, however on this 5 year-old MMO whose major verb is “shoot,” 500 slots has begun to show a bit cramped for veteran gamers’ arsenals. PC Gamer’s resident Future fiend, Tim Clark, wrote on the topic in October, notably noting that Bungie’s larger responsiveness in adjusting the sport’s sandbox incentivizes being a pack rat, as you by no means know what archetype or roll will dominate the meta subsequent.
The 100 bonus slots will give gamers a bit extra respiration room, and the TWAB notes that the crew will “proceed to research future options,” hopefully that means that extra substantial vault modifications will come sooner or later.
The TWAB additionally lined new Trials of Osiris rewards and modifications to the upcoming Solstice (previously Solstice of Heroes) occasion. Bungie will probably be introducing event-related seals like those gamers can already earn for finishing seasonal actions, in addition to an “Occasion Card” system to maintain observe of Solstice’s actions and rewards.
Notably absent was any particulars on the brand new season launching Tuesday, apart from a top level view of the rewards coming with Friday’s new dungeon. This is not the primary time Bungie has stored its playing cards near its chest with a brand new season, and my private favourite season, Arrivals, had the same launch day reveal. Here is hoping the Season of [Redacted] retains up the momentum of the superb Witch Queen enlargement.
