The new Dread enemies coming in Destiny 2’s The Final Shape expansion

Bungie have released a big overview video ofDestiny 2’s Final Shape expansion, introducing a new, openly overpowered Prismatic subclass, fresh Exotic items and the new Dread enemy faction.

If you’re thinking this sounds a touch overpowered, you’re right - Bungie confess in the footage that the subclass “feels a little game-breaking”.

The Final Shape’s Dread faction include the returning Tormentor and the new Subjugator, Weaver, Attendant, Grim, and Husk. Some notes for your bestiaries: the Husk is an acrobatic bruiser that harbours a Geist which might pop out if you kill them incorrectly. The Weaver shoots waves that suck in players, and the Grim is a bat with a gun. Commendable Sinister Six vibes.

It comes at a delicate time for Bungie, who sawlayoffslast year andreportedly face a full Sony takeover if The Final Shape flops. The recentGhostbusters crossovermay reflect a certain urgency about driving up revenues.
