Every Tuesday welcomes a new weekly reset in Destiny 2, seeing the game’s featured content rotate, including the active Nightfall, Eververse Store offerings, and more.

Revenant Act 3 is here, bringing with it more seasonal content, including new weapons, the Tomb of Elders activity, and a range of balance changes that look to keep the meta feeling fresh.

Not keeping track of the weekly reset could see you lose out on limited-time rewards, rare Eververse offerings, and even exclusive Exotics from this week’s Dungeon and Raid rotation, so here’s this week’s reset information to make sure you don’t miss out.

What time is the Destiny 2 weekly reset?

The next weekly reset will happen on Tuesday, January 14, at 5 PM UTC. You’ll want to complete all of the featured content you are interested in before then, as it will rotate out after and may not return for several weeks.
