New Land Beyond stats
New Land Beyond is a Kinetic Sniper Rifle introduced with the upcoming Edge of Fate expansion. It’s a reimagined version of the iconic No Land Beyond from Destiny 1. This new version is shaping up to be a decent option in both PvE and PvP modes. Check the image above for a full breakdown of its stats.
New Land Beyond perks
Currently, only two perks are available for New Land Beyond, but more will be added with the release of the Edge of Fate expansion. For now these are New Land Beyond perks:
- Bullseye Bolster: Landing a precision hit substantially increases this weapon’s target acquisition, handling, reload speed, and stability for a short duration of time.
- The Master: Scoring precision hits increases this weapon’s damage until the wielder’s defeat. Massively increases ammo reserves.
How to get New Land Beyond in Destiny 2
The only way to get the New Land Beyond right now is by pre-ordering the Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition for $100, which includes both the upcoming Edge of Fate and Renegades expansions. While this isn’t the only method to obtain the weapon, it’s the only one currently available. Free-to-play options will become accessible when Edge of Fate launches on July 15.
There’s currently a bug or a feature (we don’t know for sure), where players who purchase only The Edge of Fate Standard Edition for $40 are receiving the New Land Beyond from the Monument to Lost Lights.
Should you pay $100 just for New Land Beyond?
There’s no need to spend $100 just to get early access to New Land Beyond, as it will be available in July to anyone who purchases the Edge of Fate expansion.
The weapon isn’t particularly overpowered right now, and viable alternatives like Ice Breaker are available. Still, the Year of Prophecy Ultimate Edition offers additional cosmetic features that may be worth the price for some players.

This allows you to aim more accurately at the head and increase New Land Beyond’s damage through The Master perk. If you don’t have New Land Beyond yet, you can use the Ice Breaker Sniper Rifle for this build.
