As a character-based gacha game, new Lighbearers will consistently join Destiny: Rising‘s roster. Each character has a unique backstory and abilities, so if you’re saving your pulls, it’s worth checking out what characters are set to arrive in the near future.
Here’s everything we know about upcoming characters in Destiny: Rising.

All confirmed upcoming characters in Destiny Rising

The next character banner in Destiny: Rising is Tariq, who is an original character rather than a known legend from the Destiny lore. While Tariq was initially leaked to be Arc, he has been officially confirmed as a Solar character. Apart from his element, there’s not much known about Tariq, but he could be a more support-oriented Hunter, as there’s already Jaren as an offensive character.
Tariq’s banner arrives on May 7, replacing Efrideet. There are no details on how long the banner will last, but you can expect it to be around 20-30 days. Gwynn‘s rerun will remain for three more weeks after Tariq comes out, so there’s still plenty of time to pull for her as well.
All rumored upcoming characters in Destiny Rising

There’s one rumored Destiny: Rising character yet to be released, who seems to be a Void Warlock, too. The character’s kit is more supportive, with terminology and descriptions centered around some form of nectar and insects.
Here’s the rough overview of this character’s abilities, based on leaks:
- Signature ability: Throws a Void orb that bounces up to five times, dealing damage and also creating a healing pool on the first bounce.
- Signature ability: Switches between two states, releasing damaging or healing projectiles, depending on the state.
- Signature ability: Charge an explosion that transitions between states. Use the ability again to unleash the explosion, creating damaging shells or healing pickups, depending on the state.
- Passive: Healing an ally with any ability grants them increased damage while draining their health. When the damage boost ends, it restores the health lost.
There are a couple of more abilities/passive effects that improve healing and deal additional damage. Those are likely the Relic traits or the character’s Talents/Constellations.
As always with leaks, take them with a grain of salt, as abilities and certain details might change closer to the release. That is, if the character comes out at all. More characters and their leaks will likely surface over time, so keep an eye out for new information and save your pulls accordingly.
