Destiny 2: The Final Shape will finally end its current, long-running story arc, but will also see the return of a friendly face. Cayde-6 lives. 

Or, at least, Cayde-6 appears in the expansion—technical aliveness to be determined. Bungie killed off the fan-favorite robot in 2018 expansion Forsaken, but a teaser shown during today’s PlayStation Showcase (embedded above) sees Cayde catching up on current events from “wherever the hell here is”—inside the Traveler, our resident Destinyhead informs me. Bungie also confirmed in a blog post that actor Nathan Fillion is reprising the role for The Final Saga.

Actually, Bungie doesn’t just say that Fillion is back for the expansion, but that he’s returned to play Cayde in the “Destiny Universe,” which may refer to Bungie’s TV and movie ambitions. 

That’s all we know about that. Regarding The Final Shape, we’ll learn more on August 22, when Bungie will spill more details during a big Destiny 2 Showcase livestream.
