Destiny 2‘s March 5 update is bringing a slew of new weapons. Update 7.3.5—also called the midseason patch for Season of the Wish—brings Guardian Games and adds loot to other activities.
Bungie is giving players a few new weapons to chase as the game approaches the Into the Light Update, which looks to keep the game a bit more meaningful until The Final Shape releases. These include a couple of new weapons for Nightfall, Trials, and Iron Banner modes, plus a loot refresh for the Prophecy dungeon. Some of these weapons are completely new, while others mark the return of old favorites.
Here are all the weapons coming in Destiny 2’s March 5 Update (Update 7.3.5), around the middle of Season of the Wish.
New weapons in Season of the Wish’s midseason patch in Destiny 2 (March 5)
Players can see new and returning weapons for Nightfalls, Trials, Iron Banner, and Guardian Games. These also include new Tex Mechanica Legendary weapons based on the Spire of the Watcher dungeon, plus a new (recently buffed) grenade launcher in Guardian Games and a trait refresh for the event’s two other weapons.
New Nightfall weapons in Update 7.3.5:
- Wild Style (Double-fire GL, Solar) — New
- Wild Style uses the same archetype as Spire of the Watcher’s Wilderflight and will enter the Nightfall pool on March 5.
- The Slammer (Vortex Frame sword, Stasis) — New
- The Slammer is the first Stasis-aligned Vortex Frame sword and the second sword to roll Cold Steel, after the Dawning’s Zephyr. It will be the Nightfall weapon on the week of March 19.
New Trials of Osiris weapons in Update 7.3.5:
- The Prophet (Aggressive scout rifle, Stasis) — New
- The Prophet has the same frame as Long Arm (Spire of the Watcher) and Last Rite (season 21 ritual weapon). It will be the Trials weapon on March 23.
- The Summoner (600rpm auto rifle) — Reissued
- The Summoner will be the Trials weapon on the weekend of March 16.
New Iron Banner weapons in Update 7.3.5:

New Guardian Games weapon in the March 5 update
The 2024 Guardian Games is also bringing the Hullabaloo grenade launcher, plus some updates to older weapons.
- Hullabaloo (Heavy Wave-Frame grenade launcher, Arc)—New
- Taraxippos (Lightweight scout rifle, Strand)—Perk refresh
- The Title (Aggressive Frame SMG, Void)—Perk refresh
New and reissued Prophecy weapons (March 5 Prophecy loot refresh)
The Prophecy weapons are also getting some attention with Update 7.3.5. Bungie gave the dungeon some new guns during Season of the Lost in 2021, the game’s last overly long season due to an expansion delay. The studio is taking the same approach in Season of the Wish’s midseason update.
Players can expect three new weapons and three changed weapons, plus a new origin trait: Crossing Over. Its effect gives weapons “increased range and handling for the top half of the magazine, while rounds from the bottom half of the magazine deal increased damage,” according to a blog post.
New Prophecy weapons
- Prosecutor (Arc auto rifle, 450rpm)
- Adjudicator (Kinetic SMG, 600rpm)
- Relentless (Strand Pulse Rifle, High-Impact/340rpm)
