Destiny 2 saw some major leaks over the weekend, just days before Bungie’s 2022 Destiny 2 Showcase’s debut on Tuesday. A data miner discovered backend data on Bungie’s website that revealed season 18’s name, a major new feature coming in Destiny 2: Lightfall, and which original Destinyraid will come to Destiny 2 on Aug. 26.

In a tweet on Friday, data miner and creator of several Destiny tools (including Ghost Overlay) Josh Hunt revealed images of internal Bungie data he found pertaining to theDestiny 2 Showcase.

Okie dokes, something small. Been waiting for this to settle. Lightfall website, code name Nebula: — Our End — Strand — Outrun — Editions — Collectors Edition full schema https://t.co/8UuGiRqONy pic.twitter.com/oN0RzcAugx

Hunt posted the schema of a Bungie product page for Nebula, the internal name for the upcoming Lightfall expansion. The image shows headers for “Our End,” “Outrun,” “Guardian Toasts”, and, most intriguingly, “Strand.” Leaks have been going around for weeks that Strand will be the name of Destiny 2’s second Darkness subclass, and Hunt’s leak seemingly confirms that the power set will make its debut in Lightfall.

Hunt followed up with another tweet on Saturday morning, posting product page details for season 18 and the returning raid. Ginsor, another longtime data miner in the Destiny community, endorsed Hunt’s leak with a retweet, and Hunt gave Ginsor credit for pointing him in the right direction.
