After a tumultuous season of competitive PvP, Bungie is overhauling the game mode for Destiny 2: Forsaken. Many of the changes that frustrated players in season 3 — such as the removal of the radar — will be rectified when season 4 launches this September. Bungie has even gone back on its word regarding the exclusivity of the Redrix’s Claymore, although with a minor caveat.

While there are plenty of important changes coming to the PvP systems in Forsaken, senior Crucible designer Kevin Yanes detailed the most important first: Bungie is re-tuning the Competitive mode grind. The weekly reward points will now always apply correctly and give players even more than before, while match-to-match points for both losses and wins will become more player-friendly.
