The Destiny 2 servers are down for scheduled maintenance this morning. The maintenance is scheduled to start at 7 AM Pacific and conclude at 12 PM Pacific. Starting at 7 AM Pacific, players will no longer be able to log in to Destiny 2. At 8 AM Pacific, all online players will be returned to the title screen. Maintenance is scheduled to end at 12 PM Pacific. Bungie is taking the Destiny 2 servers down to add hotfix 1.1.1.2. Upon logging back in, players may be prompted to download the update.
The patch notes will be available after the update goes live. This update “will address issues related to Iron Banner and Faction Rallies access,” which is directly related to Bungie previously locking content and activities behind the latest expansion of the game. This update should re-enable access to these events for all players regardless of if they have the expansion or not. More details will be available after the hotfix goes live, and Bungie will be addressing the timing of future Faction Rally and Iron Banner events in the coming weeks. Bungie’s Community Manager, DeeJ, tweeted out a New Year’s greeting will letting players know that there will be a lot to talk about in 2018.

However you choose to usher in a new year, I hope you do it safely. We have a lot to talk about in 2018.
Peace.
