This is done to get a different perspective on the content that's been planned and how players are likely to perceive the content once it goes live in the game.

However, this is probably the first time such a leak has come to light. Leaks that float around the internet are typically found within the game files. This information is datamined and is collected from within the game files that have already been downloaded onto the system but are encrypted until a specific launch date.Bungie's stance on this matter confirms that the information pertaining to Destiny 2 Season 21 is true. The incident has also raised questions about dataminers and Bungie's stance on them. The debate between leaks being either detrimental or beneficial to a live service game continues to rage on social media, and repercussions from this incident might go a long way in addressing some of the significant concerns raised through that debate.
