Released with The Edge of Fate, The Desert Perpetual takes Guardians deep into the heart of Kepler’s singularity, where the Vex of the Nessian Schism have forced their way into the Nine’s Unknown Space. Their goal is to digitize dimensional Dark matter into the Vex Network, turning one of the strangest and most mysterious spaces in Destiny into yet another extension of Vex control.
As the first raid of the Fate Saga, The Desert Perpetual carries the weight of a new era for Destiny 2. It challenges six-player fireteams to push through surreal environments, layered mechanics, and intense boss encounters while unraveling the threat spreading through Kepler’s singularity.
Like all raids, The Desert Perpetual is built around coordination, communication, and execution. Players need to manage encounter mechanics, optimize damage phases, and adapt quickly as each section raises the stakes. Whether you’re learning it for the first time or refining your clears, this raid rewards preparation and teamwork.
The Desert Perpetual stands out as a raid built around scale, mystery, and pressure. It blends Vex precision with the abstract nature of the Nine, creating an endgame experience that feels both alien and dangerous from start to finish.
