Every weekend in Destiny 2, Guardians eagerly await the arrival of Xur, the enigmatic Agent of the Nine. This week is no different! Xur has returned with his inventory of Exotic and Legendary items, ready to bolster your arsenal as you tackle the challenges of The Final Shape and beyond.
The Final Shape expansion has brought significant changes to Destiny 2, including the Prismatic subclass, new Exotics, and a rework to Xur himself. No longer roaming across different planets each week, Xur has established a permanent location within the Tower. This makes finding him much easier, allowing you to quickly access his wares and enhance your Guardian’s capabilities. So, the question on every Guardian’s mind is: Xur, where is he this week?
Xur’s Location This Week: The Tower’s Bazaar
From March 7th to March 11th, you can find Xur in his new permanent home: The Tower’s Bazaar. Specifically, he’s tucked away in a cozy alleyway to the right of the Ramen Shop. This consistent location removes the weekly scavenger hunt, making it simpler than ever to find the elusive vendor and see what treasures he has to offer.
