Destiny 2players having issues accessing the game aren’t alone, as Bungie has confirmed that the servers for bothDestinyandDestiny 2are currently experiencing issues. As of this writing, there’s no ETA for a fix, but Bungie urged fans to check in with its support page for updates.
On Twitter, Bungie revealed that multiple players are getting stuck with “Baboon” error prompts, which is typically caused by packet loss between the player’s game andDestiny 2’s servers. In the replies to Bungie’s tweets,Destiny 2players have been a mix of supportive and frustrated, some acknowledging that issues are bound to happen, while others expressed disappointment over activities lagging.

Service outages occur from time to time, especially during peak hours, such as weekends, which may be part of the game’s current issue. Typically, the problems don’t last for more than a few hours, so there’s a good chance that the game will be up and running soon, though there are plenty of factors that can affect when things come back online, meaning fans will have to be patient.
Recently, Bungie has struggled to keepDestiny 2fans happy, with certain decisions, like implementing aweapon sunsetting mechanic inDestiny 2’s near future, being a particular point of contention for the community. That’s caused a strange relationship between the developer and its fans, though there’s still a healthy amount to look forward to.
Bungie will be working onDestiny 2for years to come, giving it plenty of time to sort out its issues. Server problems will always pop up occasionally, but they’re relatively infrequent compared to other issues, like the typical weird AI or occasional game exploit. That, obviously, keeps Bungie on its toes in terms of issues, though, which is a good thing.
Hopefully,Destiny 2’sserver issues are solved sooner rather than later. ManyDestiny 2fans are replaying old content before it enters theDestiny 2 contentbaultlater this year, and there are certainly plenty of players that would like to jump back in. In the meantime, there are lots of other games out there to fill the void, whether players want a singleplayer or multiplayer experience.
Destiny 2is available now for PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
