'''Season of the Drifter''' (also known as '''Joker's Wild''') is the sixth season of ''[[Destiny 2]]'' and the second seasonal content of the ''[[Forsaken]]'' Annual Pass, which began March 5th, 2019 and ended on June 4th, 2019.
 
This season focuses on the [[Drifter]] as he unveils a new [[Gambit Prime|mode]] of [[Gambit]] much to controversy within the [[Vanguard]] and doing so splits the allegiance of Guardians between him and them; all while the mysterious [[Orin|Emissary of the Nine]] reveal visions to the Guardians of the Drifter's past and of [[Pyramids|enemies]] yet to come.

"Invader: Hunt your opponents and steal their motes."

"Collector: Gather all the motes and send blockers."
