Destiny 2 hotfix 3.3.0.3 and Destiny 2 Trials Labs revealed

Destiny 2 got one of its first hotfixes patches since the Season of the Lost update launched at the start of September. The Destiny 2 Hotfix 3.3.0.3 mainly addresses the Trials of Osiris content along with some Crucible PvP issues. Moreso, many players were having trouble getting their hands on the Ager’s Scepter, the latest exotic that players can earn completing the Season of the Lost weekly quests. If you were bothered by the weekly quests, the new patch should have sorted that out for you.

While this is the main reason Bungie’s servers went into maintenance, even more content is coming up. In this week’s episode of this week at Bungie, the devs revealed that they are bringing back the First Trial Labs. Players can queue into a new Trials Labs game mode, which offers players the chance to test new PvP rules.

Destiny 2 Trials Labs

The first Trials Labs is a feature Bungie is using to get better test information to inform their future updates. Trial Labs is a weekend event, allowing Bungie to do targeted tests that players can get involved with when they go live.

During the week, you will see the Trials of Osiris replaced with the Trials Labs: Capture Zone game mode. Here is the rules for the Trials Labs: Capture Zone mode:

• 30 seconds after the round starts, a capture zone is enabled. Players can capture this zone to win the round – or just eliminate the other team like normal.
  • The capture zone has a waypoint from round start, including a countdown timer, so everyone will know exactly when and where it will be.
• The capture zone starts in the middle of the map in the first round and changes location each round.
  • The team who just lost gets the advantaged spawn location.

You can also earn double Trials of Osiris rank points for every match. You can find the link to the Destiny 2 Trials Labs page on the Steam News section.
