Destiny 2 season 11: Start time and early patch notes

The wait is almost over...
Destiny 2/Bungie

Destiny 2 Season 11 is set to begin today, launching on PS4, Xbox One and PC.

The update, version 2.9.0 will see the beginning of Season 11, which is also being referred to as the Season of Arrivals.

At the moment, Bungie has not revealed much about what's included in the Season 11 update, but it is likely we'll see new downloadable content (DLC) and some form of new antagonist arriving on the scene.

Here's what we know so far about today's update...

What time does Season 11 start?

Bungie has confirmed Season of Arrivals will be available to download today at around 18:00 BST. The game will be taken offline an hour before.

But just because you can't play Destiny during this time, doesn't mean you can't get your fix; while the update is being rolled out, Bungie will host a live stream which will unveil all the details about the new season.

You can watch the stream here on Bungie's official Destiny 2 Twitch channel.

The start time was confirmed by the Destiny 2 support team, as it said "When Season of the Worth ends at the weekly reset on June 9, there will be a number of items, activities and Triumphs that will no longer be available to players".

On Tuesday, June 9, Update 2.9.0 will be available to players.

Early patch notes

In its weekly update, Bungie has shared some early patch notes for Season 11, explaining some key changes.

"Season of [REDACTED] will contain a few introductory changes, with more shifts coming in Season 12", the post reads.

Here are the changes:

Legendary Armor Ornaments

As noted in a previous TWAB (This Week at Bungie), we have shifted the Season 11 armour offering to be a gameplay reward for aspirational content.

The Season of Opulence “Intrepid” Ornament sets are returning to the storefront.

Season Pass

Added an additional 2300 Bright Dust to the Season Pass.

Bright Dust Purchases

Added a “Flair” section to feature Shaders and Spawn FX.

Highly requested items from previous Seasons will once again be available.

Season 11 Silver-only items will be available at the beginning of the Season.

There will be an update later in Season 11 on further changes to Bright Dust acquisition.

Sandbox

The Powerful Friends armour mod will no longer stack. If multiple copies of this mod are equipped, the mods will provide no bonus stats.

Season 11 introduces a new Arc mod, granting a similar stat bonus to Strength and will not stack.

Enhanced Auto Rifle Loader, Enhance Fusion Rifle Loader, and Enhanced Bow Loader armour mods now have a chance to drop from pinnacle mod sources.

Raid Rewards

The following raid Exotics now have increased drop chances:

  • One Thousand Voices
  • Anarchy
  • Always on Time (Exotic Sparrow from secret chest in Scourge of the Past)

Trials Rewards

Additional Masterwork material rewards now drop at 3, 5, and 7 Trials wins.

Added a Trials weekly bounty which unlocks Trials Engrams on Saint-14.

The bounty reward will match the Win 3 Milestone reward of the week.

Trials Tokens distribution has been rebalanced to focus on wins 3, 5, and 7 of a Trials Passage.

Trials Tokens are no longer awarded from match completions.

Tokens are now granted specifically through wins and bounties.

Passage of Wealth now doubles the bonus Trials Tokens earned at 3, 5 and 7 Trials wins.

That's all Bungie shared for now, but we won't have to wait long to see the full notes and changes coming in the new season.
