Destiny 2 The Dawning 2019 Preview

Today The Dawning is coming back to Destiny 2. The Dawning 2019 will be both familiar and new, as it is every year in Destiny 2. This year, luckily, we’ve got a preview of what Guardians will be able to earn this year. The Dawning begins today the 17th of December, and runs until the 14th of January 2020, so let’s dive in and take a look at what’s coming.

Baking

First things first, it sounds like Eva Levante’s Oven is coming back. This was introduced last year, and was an item that Guardians could bake certain consumables in, forming a big old questline that saw Guardians go and visit each NPC in the game in order to give them a specific snack. We put together a guide for all the 2018 recipes for The Dawning, and we’ll be doing the same this year.

Cold Front SMG

Like most live events in Destiny 2, The Dawning 2019 will have a new weapon for Guardians to earn. This one is an SMG called Cold Front, and apparently you’re able to bake it with the same oven that you cook up all those treats in. I don’t know whether you’ll have to masterwork the oven, by completing the quest for the event, before you can make this weapon, or if it’s something you earn through the event’s exclusive activity.

It’s also possible to get Avalanche, the Machine Gun that was the event exclusive weapon for The Dawning 2018, this year. I got a few different versions of Avalanche last year, but I’ll be working on getting that perfect roll this year for sure.

The Dawning 2019 Cosmetics

Once again, as we have with all events in Destiny 2, there are some exclusive cosmetics to earn. I always love these because they’re super rare, and no one seems to have them for the rest of the year. Bungie have said that this year there’s only one item that will cost Silver to earn, the new Finisher ‘The Perfect Ten’.

That’s everything we know about The Dawning 2019 right now. Stay tuned to the site and we’ll update you with what we know as it unfolds. You could also just log into Destiny 2 later on today after the reset and discover it for yourself. Let us know if you’re excited for The Dawning 2019 in the comments.
