It hasn't been officially confirmed, but after reading the weekly update, it might as well be.
If you read the last paragraph, Deej says that they're "making you wish you weren’t born when we shoot you with the Thorn – and if poison doesn’t kill you, follow up with Gjallarhorn."
Deej doesn't write these updates without reason. There's usually a meaning in the text, and did this one expose itself. We already know Gjallarhorn is coming back, and it looks like Thorn is too based on the way he phrased the last sentence.
What do you guys think? There's definitely a legitimate reason to believe Thorn is coming back, whether it's the exact same or with a changed perk or two.
Edit: So a couple guys told me that line was from the movie of the week. Keep in mind that I made this post without watching any of the movies because I don't really care for them. Nevertheless, I still think there's a reason why Deej used a line from a video in a blog, one that specifically mentions the Thorn.

Too little too late. They kicked me out by shitting in my warlock. Giving me back my favor gun is useless at this point.
-
It was in dubas freestyle video which is about all 46 exotics its also the movie of the week
-
Illuminati confirmed
-
It's a quote from the freestyle that was the movie of the week... >.>

The dash after Thorn is a hidden hyperlink. Click it.

By this logic Y3 allows you to equip two Exotic weapons, or you wouldn't be able to "follow up with Gjallarhorn", would you?
-
Iron thorn????
-
Guys....it's a quote from the movie of the week... Seriously....let's not go full retard here...
-

Deej is a clown, don't get your hopes up, not just yet.. [spoiler][url=https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ]Footage of Year Three Thorn[/url][/spoiler]

yeeeaaahhhh, more old weapons reskinned for the fruity pebble eating mo-fos. I hope it doesn't. some new weapons infused with that crazy Fallen crap from the next dlc is going to be alright!! new weapons means that people at Bungie are still thinking... why give them excuses to shovel out more fodder for the zombies?! #makeDestinygreatagain #ilikepancakes

The struggle when you received Thorn's bounty on your Hunter.... Using blue void shotty or fusion and just camping on one spot, nice time indeed

Edited by MrSwiftMind: 7/1/2016 12:58:12 AMIf thorn returns I'd honestly stop playing crucible. It's one thing to use a cooldown ability and leave a dot but to actively shoot a target with a stacking dot is beyond the type of gun to have in pvp. My thoughts
-
Could be a possibility.
-
It's from the MOTW. And he may have just picked it because either the Ghally is coming back, or because he liked it
-
It would make me happy, I loved that gun! It just looks bad ass
-
Recently after the fixes to its DOT I don't see why not its a 3 shot kill in the head like other hand cannons and I love thorn so much I have a replica on my desk
-
I just hope it won't be as powerful as it was in year one. That was a horrible year to play
-
Still a believer the complaints about Thorn were at least a little overstated. This is how I viewed it in pvp: When I was hit by it, at least I immediately knew what it was. What did I then do? I backed up every time to regroup. I never was afraid to take on someone using it, I just didn't let it take me by surprise and insist on an instant standoff. Was it used a lot? Yes. Did that ever bother me? Never.
-
I started a game using it last week got a trade then a triple on respawn...it's still my favorite hand cannon I have a 3D printed replica on my shelf like a trophy
-
Callimg it now ps exclusive roi
-
Thorn is awesome it should be back and to the haters of the thorn Justin timber lake said Cry me a river
-
It was quoted from the motw... Wasnt out of nowhere
-
As stated in other threads....its quoted from the MOTW.
-
I doubt it'll ever come back in an form that's not total garbage. Oh they might bring it "back" as a token lol, shoots warm breezes that smell a bit. That's as dangerous as we'll ever see it again most likely

It's a line from the movie of the week
