Destiny 2 The Final Shape has caused one of its longest server downtime of 25 hours, all because of the launch of this expansion. The Final Shape is scheduled to be the game's biggest-ever patch to date, where the community is getting a complete overhaul of the sandbox, new locations, missions, return of all vaulted weapons, and much more.
Typically, the company needs to work on its servers at full power to ensure a smooth launch of its expansion. However, one should expect a queue at launch, alongside player overflow in the initial hours. Destiny 2 official servers are scheduled to go live on June 4, at 10 am PT UTC -7.
This article will be updated if the company announces any delay in the launch.
