Destiny 2 Season 19--now known as Season of the Seraph--has officially kicked off, refreshing the game with new weekly missions, activities, and gear to collect. Season of the Seraph will run from December 6 until February 28, which is also the start of Destiny 2's next expansion, Lightfall. We've run down everything that you can earn from the new season pass over the next couple of months, including one of the new Exotic weapons that will be unlocked from the start, as well as the new armor that Titans, Hunters, and Warlocks can equip.

With Lightfall drawing closer, there's still time to preorder the expansion and its Annual Pass, which will unlock a number of items for you to use right now such as the delightfully destructive Quicksilver Storm Exotic auto rifle. Once again, the Power level cap has increased by 10 this season, and there'll be numerous other small but substantial changes to Destiny 2 thanks to the latest patch.

Season of the Seraph storyline

No Caption Provided

After being out of action for almost two years, Golden Age warmind AI is back in the spotlight for Season of the Seraph. The Hive god of War Xivu Arath has begun moving to seize control of Rasputin's dangerous arsenal of weaponized satellites, and if successful, these tools could be used to destroy the Last City. To stop her, the Vanguard has formed a new covert team of operatives known as Seraphs to fight back with advanced Warmind weaponry and defeat Xivu Arath's forces before it's too late.

Weekly mission - Operation: Seraph's Shield

The narrative arc of Season 19 will be focused on restoring Rasputin, after the advanced AI was almost destroyed by a Pyramid ship several seasons back. Ana Bray has been working to restore Rasputin back to working condition, and to help her out, Guardian fireteams will work to gain access to the almost-impenetrable Braytech orbital platform that floats above the Last City. By breaking through layers of security each week, the race will be on to awaken Rasputin.

Heist Battlegrounds

The new seasonal activity for Season 19, Heist Battlegrounds takes place in Braytech facilities scattered around the Solar system. Players will have to bypass advanced defense systems while dealing with hordes of Xivu Arath's Wrathborn.

New weapons

After a few seasons of Cabal and Fallen-themed weapons, Season of the Seraph will introduce a new selection of Warmind-themed tools of destruction.

Seasonal challenges

No Caption Provided

Like previous seasons, Season 19 features a number of optional challenges to complete every week, which will reward players with a substantial amount of experience points, items, and Bright Dust to spend in the Eververse store. There are usually 10 weeks of unique objectives to accomplish throughout a given season, and they can be completed at your own leisure. Complete all of them, and you'll be rewarded with a pile of Bright Dust that can be used to purchase some neat cosmetic gear.

Exotic SMG: The Manticore

The Manticore

The Manticore is a strange weapon, one which combines satisfying feedback with a very peculiar perk in the form of Soaring Fang. Essentially, doing damage with The Manticore while grounded will charge up anti-gravity boosters, while doing damage from the sky will extend the meter. Once you're airborne and using the SMG, you'll automatically hover in the air so long as your meter remains charged. We'll need to see exactly what kind of scenario The Manticore works best in, and will update this section as soon as we've sunk some more time into playing with this weapon.
