Whether we wanted it or not, we’ve stepped into a war with the Cabal in the new seasonal Battleground activity. At least, that’s what players will be able to do when Destiny 2’s Season of the Chosen arrives, which happens to be next week.

Bungie has released a new trailer showing off the upcoming Season of the Chosen and all that it contains. Of course, with a new season comes a host of new goodies, including cosmetics, Exotic quests, Strikes, and much more. Not only with there be a new Strike with Proving Grounds, but the devs are also bringing back a couple from the first game with Devil’s Lair and Fallen S.A.B.E.R., providing veteran players an opportunity to enjoy them once again and new players a chance to experience them for the first time.

“With the Pyramids and Xivu Arath destabilizing the system, Empress Caiatl, leader of the Cabal and daughter of Calus, seeks an alliance,” reads the official description. “But when she demands more than Zavala can offer, negotiations collapse, and Guardians must become the tip of the spear that strikes at her growing war council.”
