Destiny 2 Lightfall “Not launching on Xbox Series X/S”: How to fix, possible reasons, and more

sportskeeda.com:

The Destiny 2 Lightfall update seems to have introduced a fair amount of performance issues for the game across all major platforms, including PC, Xbox, and PlayStation.

While there's a lot to unpack when it comes to Season of Defiance, not a lot of Guardians are able to enjoy the content due to the extensive number of bugs and errors in it.

One of the biggest issues with Destiny 2 right now is a bug that prevents the game from launching on the Xbox Series X/S. What makes it one of the more annoying issues to deal with is the fact that there are no permanent solutions to the problem, apart from a few temporary workarounds that the community has come up with.

Hence, today’s guide goes over some of the steps you can follow to deal with the Destiny 2 Lightfall “Not Launching error” on the Xbox Series X/S.

According to some community members, Destiny 2 Lightfall is crashing on the Microsoft console due to certain add-ons that are active on their platforms. These add-ons are interfering with the new update, which is why the game keeps crashing on the Xbox Series X/S.

There is no permanent solution to the issue unless Bungie comes up with a patch that looks to fix it. However, for a temporary workaround to the problem, you can follow the steps below:

If you disable some of the existing DLC content, you will not be able to access them once you launch the game again. This is one of the trade-offs for this method. For now, deleting some of the content will not fix the Lightfall start-up issues that many have been facing on their Xbox Series X/S.

The best solution for this issue is to wait for an update. The Lightfall expansion seems to be causing a fair bit of performance issues across all the platforms, and Bungie is aware of it.
