Destiny 2 was briefly taken offline yesterday to roll out hotfix 7.0.5.3. The latest update re-enabled Destiny 2 Vendors, Item Perks and Mods, and Subclass options for players. However, the rollout wasn’t exactly smooth, causing issues for multiple players afterward. Addressing this, Bungie took to Twitter to announce another shutdown of the servers for emergency maintenance. While the game is back, issues still persist for many. While players wait for another patch, here’s what the latest hotfix brings.
