Destiny. The Sunless Cell will come to Destiny 2, getting a facelift in the process: it won't be what you remember from The Taken King.

The Sunless Cell was initially a Strike for The Taken King expansion in the original Destiny. With the Dreadnaught and Oryx returning for Episode: Heresy, it's a timely and welcome addition to the game. Bungie doesn't usually add new strikes to

 beyond what comes with a given expansion, often opting for Episodic Battlegrounds instead. Though the content is similar, Battlegrounds have proven to be a bit more of a hit-or-miss. With that in mind, it's probably best that Bungie is reintroducing Guardians to an old haunt. The real question is, when will the Sunless Cell be playable in Destiny 2?

 previewing what was to come in Act II and beyond of Episode: Heresy, Bungie teased the return of the Sunless Cell Strike. Though the studio did not give any specific dates for when the Strike would be playable, it's possible to infer some conclusions based on how the team talked about Sunless Cell.

Bungie confirmed that the Sunless Cell would return in Act III of Episode: Heresy, pinned as the "featured activity" for the Act. We know that Act II starts on Tuesday, March 11, and that it will run for three weeks. So, based on that information, it's fair to say that the earliest players should expect the Sunless Cell Strike... on April Fool's Day.

While there's no certainty that the studio will release the Strike the day Act III starts, it wouldn't make a lot of sense for the featured activity of an Act to be absent from launch, even odder if it wasn't there after a week or two. So, with that said, I'd wager on the Sunless Cell Strike appearing on April 1 or within the following reset.

Thankfully, it seems like there will be plenty to do in the three short weeks between Act II and Act III. During the same stream, Bungie showed off some of the returning Guardian Games event, complete with a

Though the Sunless Cell is technically a returning Strike from Destiny, the Destiny 2 iteration will have some key differences. In the original, Guardians descended into the Dreadnaught after Oryx's destruction to stop Alak-Hul, The Darkblade, from commandeering The Taken King's vacant throne.

With Alak-Hul now known as The Lightblade and in service to Savathun's Lucent Brood, Bungie confirmed you wouldn't see the same antagonist in the Sunless Cell. The team didn't share any specifics about what we'd find in the Strike now, but given that the Dreadnaught is currently infested with Dread and Dire Taken, my money is on one or a combination of those forces.
