Is Cayde-6 coming back in Destiny 2 Final Shape?

I'm shook.

Destiny's favorite Exo was tragically killed in the Forsaken expansion and has been sorely missed by Guardians ever since. However, it appears as though he could be making a return in the next Destiny 2 expansion. Here's everything we know about whether Cayde will be coming back in Destiny 2: The Final Shape.

Is Cayde-6 returning to Destiny 2?

It seems as though, yes, the Hunter Vanguard Cayde-6 will be returning in Destiny 2: The Final Shape. A teaser trailer for the next expansion was shown during the PlayStation Showcase on May 24, 2023, which I definitely was not expecting.

In it, Ikora Rey is shown speaking to an unknown person after somehow going through the portal that appeared at the start of the Lightfall expansion. After a few seconds, it's revealed that she is talking to none other than Cayde-6.

Is Cayde-6 really dead in Destiny 2?

As for how he will be returning and whether he is actually dead or not, I don't know. I personally think that the portal on the Traveler leads to some purgatory, with Cayde-6 stuck there, unable to move on. But we'll see.

When will we find out if Cayde-6 is alive in Destiny 2?

We'll likely find out more during the Destiny 2: The Final Shape Showcase, which is set to air on August 22, 2023.

For now, Season 21 is well underway. For more information on Destiny 2 Season of the Deep, check out How to get the Last of Us Sparrow, Ship & Ghost Shell in Destiny 2 and How does Deepsight Activation & Crafting work in Destiny 2? on Pro Game Guides.
