Destiny 2 datamining suggests upcoming DLC, events and returning locations

Yahhh!

Destiny 2 officially released yesterday on PC and since then plenty of players have been looking through the game files instead of playing them. Redditor TheEcumene dug through 26,000 audio files only to discover what was cut from the game, as well as some things that could be coming in later content.

Unused dialogue lines, spoken by Saladin and Cayde, seem to refer to the upcoming Osiris DLC, which might add the Mercury Patrol Zone, and the return of the exiled Warlock ‘Osiris’ and Shiro, the hunter and scout introduced in Destiny 1’s Rise of Iron expansion.

There's also a reference to the Warmind DLC, which is set to release next year.

According to the miner, this is a list of what the leaked files actually contains;

  • Voice lines about new worlds; Ganymede & The Myriad.

  • Voice lines about Destiny 1 patrol zones; Venus, Mars, Dreadnaught, Old Russia

  • Phobos and Mercury are also talked about, with Phobos hinted as a new Patrol zone.

  • Cayde-6 dies! FWC and NM have lines mentioning his death and “what comes after”. EDIT: Apparently these are in-game, so I suppose scrapped? How odd that they exist but mean nothing.

  • Shiro is on Mercury and Osiris comes to the Tower once again!

  • All Destiny 1 events will return, along with new ones. I mean things like Crimson Days, Festival of the Lost (next year), SRL, etc… Not Queen's Wrath or anything.

  • The Reef and Prison of Elders, along with Petra and Variks, are mentioned. Seems like you can go back!

  • SRL returns, along with Marcus Ren.

  • Black Garden and the Vault of Glass are mentioned; perhaps a trip back?
