Recent leaks from well-known sources have unveiled potential pre-order bonuses for the upcoming Destiny 2 expansion, tentatively titled Codename Apollo, set to launch in June 2025. Among the exciting offerings is the highly anticipated return of the “No Land Beyond”sniper rifle from the first installment of Destiny. Interestingly, the weapon will reportedly be renamed to New Land Beyond and is expected to undergo subtle modifications to its perks while retaining its original design.
This article outlines the various pre-order bonuses associated with the Apollo expansion, based on leaked information.
Leaked Pre-Order Bonuses for Destiny 2: Apollo
The following is a compilation of all the pre-order bonuses rumored for the forthcoming Destiny 2: Apollo expansion:
- New Land Beyond Exotic Sniper Rifle
- Anisotrophic Ghost Shell
- External Sights Emblem
Historically, pre-order weapons are made available a few months before the associated expansion’s release. However, with Codename Apollo still without a confirmed name or listing, players currently lack the option to pre-order the expansion.
The original incarnation of the No Land Beyond is noteworthy for its distinctive iron sights, setting it apart from other sniper rifles in the Destiny universe. A recently leaked 3D model from the source @Bungie_Leaks reveals a small scope poised above the weapon, although details on the final appearance in Codename Apollo remain undisclosed.
It’s essential to mention that players will still have the opportunity to acquire the weapon after the expansion goes live. All bonuses awarded for pre-ordering will be accessible through the Special Deliveries terminal located at the Tower once the expansion is purchased.
Below is a summary of key attributes associated with the rumored New Land Beyond Exotic Sniper Rifle, as indicated by the leaks:
- Intrinsic Trait: The Master – Achieving precision hits will amplify this weapon’s damage until the player is defeated. It can provide an approximately 80% damage increase at x20 stacks, with the buff name changing to Grandmaster x20.
- New Perk: Bullseye Bolster – Scoring a precision hit significantly boosts the weapon’s target acquisition, handling, reload speed, and stability for a limited time.
According to the leaks, this sniper rifle will feature a rate of fire of 72 rounds per minute, utilize special ammo, and have a magazine capacity of 8 rounds.
