God is a Geek: 6 / 10 by Mick Fraser

A lacklustre first offering that gets by on a few star turns and the same stirling gunplay.

Game Informer: 7.3 / 10 by Matt Miller

The storytelling lacks punch, the new play spaces aren't used to their full potential, and the endgame loop still has problems, but Curse of Osiris has more under the hood than first appears

Full Review

Metro GameCentral: 5 / 10

A distinctly unambitious expansion that adds nothing meaningful to the parent game except a very short, and mostly dull, new story campaign.

Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris for PC, PS4 and XONE is an expansion pack for the shooter game Destiny 2. It's not a stand-alone expansion, so it requires the core game to run. Both of those productions were developed by Bungie Software, known for the first installments of the Halo and Myth series.

Plot

Curse of Osiris is set after the events of the main campaign of Destiny 2. A gate in your part of the galaxy has opened, allowing the Vex – an ancient cyborg race – to invade, threatening the whole universe. The story focuses on attempting to save the eponymous space warlock called Osiris, an exile and former mentor of Ikora Rey.

Only Osiris knows how to stop the Vex, but they don't just decide to wait idly and instead pursue him. Your task is to save Osiris and obtain the information he has. To achieve that, you go to Mercury.

Mechanics

Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris doesn't change the gameplay mechanics much and focuses on new content. The expansion features a patrol zone on Mercury, with new adventures. You can also obtain new weapons, armors, and other items.

There are also new co-op activities and PvP arenas, as well as new types of raids known from the base game, featuring new challenges, puzzles, and a previously unseen boss. Furthermore, you can also rest for a while in the Lighthouse. In the core game, it was only available to those, who flawlessly completed the Trials of Osiris challenge – now everyone can visit it.
