Bungie Confirms Destiny 2's Red War Campaign is Permanently Lost

Court documents reveal that Destiny 2's original campaign is no longer compatible with the game's updated framework, ending hopes of its return.

Destiny 2's Red War campaign, removed in 2020, cannot be restored due to technical incompatibility with the game's evolved engine.
Bungie disclosed in court that no functional build of the campaign exists, relying on third-party video footage for legal proceedings.
The confirmation arose during a lawsuit in which sci-fi writer Matthew Martineau alleged the campaign plagiarized his unpublished work.
The campaign's removal highlights the transient nature of Destiny 2's live-service model, where significant content is often retired permanently.
While the game's content has evolved significantly since its launch, the loss of legacy campaigns like Red War remains a contentious issue for players.
