Bungie reveals upcoming ritual weapon for Destiny 2 Season of Defiance

Every season, Bungie introduces a new ritual weapon in Destiny 2. Since it's a ritual weapon, players don't have to spend materials to masterwork it anymore because they can pick up the masterwork version of the weapon itself.

Destiny 2 Lightfall and the Season of Defiance are a little over a week away. Once this new season drops, players can earn a brand new ritual weapon. Bungie normally doesn't do this, but the developers have revealed the upcoming ritual weapon in the newest "This Week at Bungie" blog post.
