What you need to know
- A bug within a Destiny 2 hotfix caused players to lose various amounts of in-game items.
- All currencies were at risk of being deleted by the bug.
- Currently, Bungie has taken Destiny 2 down for emergency maintenance.
- Bungie has come up with a fix for the issue, and it is being deployed soon.
- Bungie is planning to roll all player accounts back to what they were before the update to restore lost items.
Destiny 2 Update 2.7.1, a hotfix for the game that was intended to solve a few minor issues, ended up shipping with a bug that caused players to lose various amounts of in-game currency. Glimmer, Bright Dust, and Silver were all at risk of being deleted, as well as Upgrade Modules, all planetary materials, and even the hard-to-earn Enhancement Cores, Ascendant Prisms, and Ascendant Shards that are necessary for masterworking weapons and armor.
We have validated a fix for this issue and will be rolling back all player accounts to how they were before Update 2.7.1 went live. Destiny 2 will remain offline for several more hours as we deploy this fix. Another update will be provided by 3 PM Pacific.

After taking Destiny 2 offline for emergency maintenance, Bungie has developed a fix for the issue and is currently working on rolling it out across the servers. Until then, the game will remain unavailable to players. Bungie is planning to give us an update around 3 PM PT/6 PM ET, so we'll know more then.
Bungie has also said that it plans to roll back player accounts to how they were before the update came out, effectively restoring everyone's lost items. Hopefully this solution to the issue ends up working.
We're keeping a close eye on the situation, and we'll update this article once more information is known.
