“Have you ventured deep below the Plaguelands to destroy Aksis? If you have not, there is still time to increase your Light, form up a dream team, and embark on the mission. If you have completed that mission, the truest test of teamwork and cunning is yet to come,” Bungie teases.
As with every raid, the developer will once again be tracking teams, seeing who can claim world first when the raid goes live. “The next leg of the race begins in a few weeks. Mark your calendars. Rally your allies… When World First status hangs in the balance, the true final boss is the Fireteam that is one encounter ahead of you.”
