How the Shattered Realm in Destiny 2 works, and how to prepare for its secrets

The Shattered Realm is a destination introduced in the Season of the Lost Wayfinder's Voyage storyline, and is comprised of three missions - Forest of Echoes, Debris of Dreams and Ruins of Wrath.

Each one has three beacons and a boss battle to complete within a Taken-style realm, but that's not all; each area has multiple types of collectibles and secrets to uncover, unlocking various Seasonal Challenges and Triumphs in the process. For completionists, there's a lot to get stuck into.

There are, of course, several complicating factors. One of these is that only one Shattered Realm mission is available at any given time - with the next mission cycling in on the next weekly reset.

If you are playing through the Wayfinder's Voyage quest, this doesn't affect your progress - as you simply need to complete the active Shattered Realm mission to progress the respective step. However, if you are after all the Shattered Realm's secrets, then it means waiting until your desired mission is active in the rotation schedule before you can access everything.

The other thing to note is that, before you can get everything, you must unlock a series of abilities first. Though you can start uncovering some secrets as soon as completing the first week of Wayfinder's Voyage, it might be easier to wait until you have everything first.

If you want to find everything there is within the Shattered Realm, it's recommended you:

• Get up to speed with the Wayfinder's Voyage storyline, with each week unlocking new abilities to help you explore the Shattered Realm further
• Unlock the Ager's Scepter Exotic, granting you the ability to destroy rocks and find further secrets

With the above in hand, you can then fully explore the Shattered Realm and find its many secrets.

Destiny 2 Shattered Realm rotation: When will Forest of Echoes, Debris of Dreams and Ruins of Wrath next be available?

The Shattered Realm's three missions work on a rotation - cycling from one to the next each week at the usual weekly reset time.

This means only one mission is available at a time - and you have to wait until the following week to access the next mission.

Thankfully, as each one goes in sequence, we can work out when a specific mission will be playable in the game - useful if you are still slowly making your way through Wayfinder's Voyage and want to plan your excursions.

The Shattered Realm rotation is as follows:

Weekly reset date	Shattered Realm mission
September 28th	Ruins of Wrath
October 5th	Forest of Echoes
October 12th	Debris of Dreams
October 19th	Ruins of Wrath
October 26th	Forest of Echoes
November 2nd	Debris of Dreams
November 9th	Ruins of Wrath
November 16th	Forest of Echoes
November 23rd	Debris of Dreams
November 30th	Ruins of Wrath
December 7th	Forest of Echoes
December 14th	Debris of Dreams
December 21st	Ruins of Wrath
December 28th	Forest of Echoes
January 4th	Debris of Dreams
January 11th	Ruins of Wrath
January 18th	Forest of Echoes
January 25th	Debris of Dreams
February 1st	Ruins of Wrath
February 8th	Forest of Echoes
February 14th	Debris of Dreams

From February 22nd, 2021, Season of the Lost will end and the Witch Queen expansion will begin - removing the Shattered Realm area from Destiny 2.
