Destiny 2 Down on June 23

Even if live service support has ended for Destiny 2, that doesn’t mean Bungie won’t be updating the game. Today, the developers will roll out a client-side patch, but before that happens, the Destiny 2 servers need to be pulled down.

Players across all platforms will be pulled from playing the game and unable to connect for a few hours, and this is in preparation for update 9.7.0.2.
