How to Fix Destiny 2
Crashing

If Destiny 2 keeps crashing or freezing, follow these steps in order. Crashes are almost always local — GPU drivers, corrupted files, or conflicting software — rather than server-side issues.

Step-by-Step Fix

Update GPU drivers

Destiny 2 receives frequent updates and old GPU drivers quickly become incompatible. Install the latest drivers via NVIDIA GeForce Experience or AMD Adrenalin using the clean install option.

Verify game files on Steam

Right-click Destiny 2 in Steam → Properties → Local Files → Verify integrity of game files. Destiny 2 frequently has large patches and partial download failures cause crashes.

Disable Steam overlay

The Steam overlay occasionally conflicts with Destiny 2. In Steam: Settings → In-Game → uncheck "Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game". Relaunch Destiny 2.

Update Windows and DirectX

Destiny 2 requires up-to-date DirectX and Visual C++ redistributables. Run Windows Update fully, then download and install the latest DirectX from microsoft.com.

Disable third-party performance tools

MSI Afterburner, RivaTuner, and frame rate tools can conflict with Destiny 2's anti-cheat. Close all hardware monitoring and overlay software before launching.

Lower graphics or disable Ray Tracing

In Destiny 2 Video settings, disable Ray Tracing and reduce Shadow Quality and Ambient Occlusion. These are the most resource-intensive and crash-prone settings.

Is it server-side?

Check real-time player reports — if reports are spiking, it's on Bungie's end, not yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Destiny 2 keep crashing on PC?

Destiny 2 crashes on PC are typically caused by outdated GPU drivers, Steam overlay conflicts, third-party overlays (MSI Afterburner, RivaTuner), or corrupted game files. Update drivers, disable all overlays, and verify game files in Steam.

What does the Destiny 2 Marionberry error code mean?

Marionberry indicates your connection to Bungie's servers was interrupted in a way that suggests a client-side issue. Update GPU drivers, disable overlays, and verify game files. If it persists, contact Bungie support.

Destiny 2 crashes during cutscenes on console — why?

Cutscene crashes on console are usually caused by corrupted installation data. Delete Destiny 2's saved application data from console storage (not the game itself), then relaunch. If that doesn't help, uninstall and reinstall Destiny 2.
