What date was Destiny 2 first released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One?

Destiny 2 was first released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on September 6, 2017.

The sequel launched worldwide on those two consoles nearly three years after the original Destiny. It continued Bungie’s shared-world first-person-shooter formula while introducing new destinations, activities, weapons, and a campaign in which the Red Legion attacked the Last City and stripped Guardians of their Light.

The console date is easy to confuse with the PC launch, which followed on October 24, 2017. Destiny 2 was initially a paid game, unlike its later free-to-play New Light version. It also eventually reached Stadia in November 2019 and PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in December 2020.

September 9, 2014, belongs to the original Destiny’s release. September 4, 2018, is not Destiny 2’s launch date; it falls during the period surrounding later expansion content.
