With less than two weeks until the planned launch of the next major Destiny 2 update, Shadow and Order, it seemed a little odd that no one outside of Bungie had seen or heard a single thing about it. That silence, coupled with the update's proximity to Marathon—set to launch just two days later—led some fans to expect that a delay was inevitable. Sure enough, it's happened: Bungie has finally confirmed that Shadow and Order has been pushed back to June 9, and for some reason it's being renamed, too.
"This update is being changed and expanded to include sizable quality-of-life updates and as a result, will also be renamed. This update will now launch on June 9, 2026," Bungie wrote on Bluesky. "We will provide exact details closer to release covering previously announced Weapon Tier Upgrading, but also additions like expanding Tiered Gear to all Raid and Dungeon activities, Pantheon 2.0, Tier 5 stats for Exotic Armors, and more."
