Destiny 2 Edge of Fate Raid Release Date and Start Time

Destiny 2’s Edge of Fate saga brings a new raid for players to dive into, and its release date is set surprisingly close to the expansion launch. Bungie has confirmed the Edge of Fate raid will go live on Saturday, July 19, 2025, only four days after the expansion’s release on July 15. This tight schedule leaves little time for players to prepare.

While the exact start time is not confirmed yet, past raids have typically launched at 10:00 a.m. PT / 1:00 p.m. ET, so it’s expected the new raid will follow a similar timeline.

It’s been nearly a year since Destiny 2 last introduced a raid, with Salvation’s Edge being the previous challenge. That raid proved to be tough for players tackling it on day one, and even those who came later had to strategize carefully to defeat the Witness. Whether the Edge of Fate raid will match or surpass that level of difficulty remains to be seen.

As for the Power level requirement for the Edge of Fate raid, details are still unclear. Bungie is expected to make adjustments to how Power progression works in Destiny 2, so the current Power caps might not reflect what will be needed when the raid launches on July 19.

Players eager for the Edge of Fate raid will want to keep an eye on official updates, as Bungie often provides last-minute details on Power requirements and specific start times closer to launch. With the expansion and raid dropping so close together, Guardians should prepare to jump in quickly and experience the new content without much downtime.

Whether you’re a seasoned raider or gearing up for your first run, the Edge of Fate raid promises fresh challenges and opportunities to test your skills in this latest chapter of Destiny 2.
