With Edge of Fate just around the corner, there’s still a lot we don’t know. But one thing’s for sure: the new Exotic weapons are generating a lot of attention. Bungie has confirmed 3 Exotic weapons so far, but leaks hint at a mysterious fourth.
Let’s take a closer look at what’s coming in Destiny 2’s next big chapter, specifically in the weapon category. First up is a brand-new Exotic Hand Cannon, the first of its kind in nearly five years. Alongside it comes an insane Exotic Scout Rifle, packed with high-end potential that could shake up the meta a lot.
Graviton Spike Exotic Hand Canon
Graviton Spike is an Exotic Arc Hand Cannon from Edge of Fate, unlocked through a quest. It swaps between Arc and Stasis modes via Temporal Manipulation, each with unique effects. Precision hits charge the opposite mode, triggering lightning or crystal-based damage. Four catalysts enhance reload, stability, damage output, and elemental synergy. Full unlock details will be provided post-launch.

Third Iteration Exotic Scout Rifle
Third Iteration is a Void Exotic Scout Rifle from Edge of Fate, available through the Season Reward Pass. It features a dual-fire mode: hip-fire spreads high-damage projectiles, while ADS fires a sniper-like shot that marks targets. Marked enemies take increased damage; killing them grants invisibility and Truesight. Its Catalyst causes precision kills to trigger a weakening blast. More unlock details will be added once confirmed.

New Land Beyond Exotic Sniper Rifle
- Type: Sniper Rifle
- Element: Kinetic
New Land Beyond is currently available in Destiny 2 for players who pre-order the Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition. While the weapon is functional and accessible, it doesn’t appear to be game-breaking and has several strong alternatives at the moment. For a full breakdown of its stats, performance, and potential, check out our complete New Land Beyond overview.
New Land Beyond Exotic Perks
New Land Beyond has the following Exotic Perks:
- The Master: Scoring precision hits increases this weapon’s damage until the wielder’s defeat. Massively increases ammo reserves.
- Bullseye Bolster: Landing a precision hit substantially increases this weapon’s target acquisition, handling, reload speed, and stability for a short duration of time.
New Land Beyond Catalyst
Here is the New Land Beyond Catalyst effect:
- New Land Beyond Catalyst causes new rounds of ammo to load into the magazine when you have high stacks of the The Master Exotic Perk damage buff.
The New Land Beyond Catalyst will be available with the launch of the Edge of Fate expansion. Players who pre-order the Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition will receive the Catalyst immediately when the expansion goes live. Any alternative method for unlocking the New Land Beyond Catalyst has not been confirmed at this time.
How to get New Land Beyond
Currently, the only way to get the New Land Beyond is by pre-ordering the Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition for $100, which includes both the upcoming Edge of Fate and Renegades expansions. Although this won’t remain the exclusive method of acquisition, it is the only option available at this time. Free-to-play access and alternative unlock methods will become available with the launch of Edge of Fate on July 15.
Secret Edge of Fate Exotic weapon
A recent leak reveals what appears to be a secret Strand Exotic heavy weapon, possibly a rocket launcher or trace rifle, spotted in behind-the-scenes footage from Destiny 2 composer Adam Kallibjian. The weapon, marked with the green Strand icon and placed in the heavy slot, has not been officially announced by Bungie and may be tied to a hidden quest or raid reward in the upcoming Edge of Fate expansion. Read more in our Edge of Fate Heavy Exotic leak article.
Conclusion
The Edge of Fate expansion is set to introduce powerful Exotic weapons that could significantly impact the Destiny 2 meta. With a potential fourth secret Strand Exotic on the horizon, there’s plenty for players to be excited about. As always, our Destiny 2 carry services are here to help you unlock all the new Exotics as soon as they become available in-game.
