PSN outages lead to another Contest weekend for Destiny 2’s Sundered Doctrine Dungeon

Destiny 2 had its latest Dungeon race, but PlayStation players, in particular, got the short end of the stick. Unexpected PSN outages plagued the experience, leading to instances where some players couldn't attempt Contest mode at all. Bungie has addressed the situation, announcing that Contest mode will return another weekend. The Sundered Doctrine Dungeon was released on Friday, February 7, kicking off Destiny 2's second-ever Dungeon race. Like a Raid race, the last two Dungeons have been released with a Contest mode, massively increasing difficulty and offering some sweet rewards to the brave Fireteams who overcome its challenge. However, PlayStation players didn't have as easy of an experience, with lengthy interruptions draining away precious time.

On the day of the Dungeon release, one Redditor commented, "Multiple people have been told by customer support that this "maintenance" which wasn't scheduled, could last anywhere from 24-48 hours, justice for the psn community[.]" The commenter wasn't the only one, with many PlayStation players sharing similar sentiments. Thankfully, it didn't take long for Bungie to acknowledge the situation. One day after the Sundered Doctrine release, Bungie posted on Bluesky, saying, "Due to issues affecting PlayStation players' ability to sign in to Destiny 2, we are planning an additional Sundered Doctrine Contest Mode weekend for all platforms. Specific dates and times will be announced at a later date." The studio clarified that the race itself would be unaffected but that players would simply have another chance to take a crack at Contest mode. That means, if players want, they can attempt a clear for the coveted Emblem and a guaranteed Dungeon Exotic, Finality's Auger.
