Listed below are issues that Bungie is aware of that exist in the Destiny 2 Beta on PC. For the best experience, it is recommended that players update their drivers to their most recent versions, and accept any Windows updates that have yet to be applied before accessing the Destiny 2 Beta on PC. Additionally, as an initial troubleshooting step when encountering an issue, players should close and relaunch the Destiny 2 Beta client and Blizzard application.
