Every Tuesday welcomes a new weekly reset in Destiny 2, seeing the game’s featured content rotate, including the active Nightfall, Eververse Store offerings, and more.

Episode Heresy is here, bringing with it more seasonal content, including new weapons, The Nether activity, and a range of balance changes that look to keep the meta feeling fresh.

Not keeping track of the weekly reset could see you lose out on limited-time rewards, rare Eververse offerings, and even exclusive Exotics from this week’s Dungeon and Raid rotation, so here’s this week’s reset information to make sure you don’t miss out.

What time is the Destiny 2 weekly reset?

The next weekly reset will happen on Tuesday, May 9, at 5 PM UTC.

You’ll want to complete all of the featured content you are interested in before then, as it will rotate out after and may not return for several weeks.

This week’s featured Nightfall is The Insight Terminus, which will remain the featured Nightfall until the next weekly reset.

Each week, a new Nightfall is featured that has different champions, modifiers, and rewards. This Nightfall is featured across Advanced, Expert, Master, and Grandmaster difficulties, with each getting gradually more difficult.

This is the featued co-op mission for this week, as found in The Pale Heart patrol area:

  • Featured Cooperative Focus Mission: Iconoclasm – “Using the Vanguard’s diversion and your fireteam’s resourcefulness, seek out the ritual site where the Witness was created to learn how to destroy it.”

This is the rotation for all Legacy locations, including Neptune, Throne World, Europa, Moon, and Dreaming City:
