Every New Weapon In Destiny 2: Ash And Iron – Because Bungie Never Met A Gun They Didn’t Want To Reskin

Look, I get it. Destiny 2 players are basically digital hoarders when it comes to weapons, and Bungie knows exactly how to feed that addiction. The Ash and Iron update dropped on September 9, 2025, and surprise, surprise—we’ve got a fresh batch of shiny new toys to grind for. Because apparently, the 500+ weapons already cluttering our vaults just weren’t enough.

This free update (yes, FREE—mark your calendars, it’s a rare occurrence) takes us back to the Plaguelands for the first time since Rise of Iron. And honestly? It’s about time. The Cosmodrome was getting lonely, and we all needed an excuse to dust off our nostalgia goggles.

The Reclaim Activity: Your New Weapon Farming Nightmare

The centerpiece of Every New Weapon In Destiny 2: Ash And Iron comes through the new Reclaim activity. This four-stage grind fest sends you and two other Guardians on a merry chase through the Cosmodrome and Plaguelands to snatch up Golden Age tech before some other bad guys get their grubby hands on it. Classic Destiny logic—if it’s shiny and old, we want it.

What makes this activity particularly “special” is that it’s basically a weapon piñata. Every completion has you rolling the dice on new gear, because apparently Bungie’s solution to keeping us engaged is making us play digital slot machines. But hey, at least the combat is solid, and you can test out your newest acquisitions while grinding for even newer acquisitions. It’s the circle of Destiny life.

The activity itself is pretty straightforward—kill things, grab loot, repeat. Think of it as Strikes’ younger, more caffeinated cousin that really wants you to notice how different it is from regular Strikes. Spoiler alert: it’s not that different, but the new environments make it feel fresh enough that you won’t completely zone out during your 50th run.
