Where Is Xur Today? (April 26-30) Destiny 2 Exotic Items And Xur Location Guide

Gunar

As The Final Shape draws closer, things are heating up in Destiny 2. This week’s Final Shape trailer teased a strange and reflective journey inside the Pale Heart of the Traveler, one that will see the culmination of a decade of storytelling in Destiny 2. But before that expansion arrives, you can pay a visit to Xur to stock up on new Exotics and legendary-class gear. Here’s where Xur is this week and what he has for sale.

This week you can find Xur in The Tower, inside the Hangar. For his weapon, Xur is offering Lord of Wolves. Hunters can pick up the Knucklehead Radar helmet; Titans can grab the Eternal Warrior helmet; and Warlocks can buy the Ophidian Aspect gauntlets.

Xur Location

Xur’s location in the Tower

Spawn in using the Courtyard transmat zone in the Tower to find Xur this week. Head left and down the stairs to enter the Hangar section, then hang another left. Make your way to the north end of the area and look for a staircase that will take you onto a catwalk, where Xur is waiting.

Xur Exotic and Legendary Items

  • Exotic Engram – 97 Legendary Shards
  • Lord of Wolves – 29 Legendary Shards
  • Knucklehead Radar – 23 Legendary Shards
  • Eternal Warrior – 23 Legendary Shards
  • Ophidian Aspect – 23 Legendary Shards
  • Hawkmoon – 200 Legendary Shards, 125,000 Glimmer, 1 Ascendant Shard, 1 Exotic Cipher
  • Xenology quest – Free
  • Legendary weapons and armor – 50 Legendary Shards, 1,000 Glimmer

Exotic Armor

(Exotic Hunter helmet)

Knucklehead Radar

With recent changes to the sandbox in Destiny 2, Knucklehead Radar has received a bit of a buff. It’s a solid option for PvP play thanks to the fact that it maintains your radar even while you’re aiming down the sights, giving you a lot more situational awareness about people who might be sneaking up on you. The helmet also marks targets and gives you a damage boost to those with low health, making it a little easier to finish fights.

  • Mobility: 19
  • Resilience: 11
  • Recovery: 2
  • Discipline: 10
  • Intellect: 6
  • Strength: 16
  • Total: 64

(Titan Exotic helmet)

Eternal Warrior

Consider Eternal Warrior with your Titan Arc builds, particularly if you’re pairing lots of Arc weapons with your abilities. You get a damage bonus to your Arc guns that increases with each Arc final blow you land, and you also get an overshield for your Fists of Havoc Super, making it easier to dish out a ton of devastation.

  • Mobility: 6
  • Resilience: 12
  • Recovery: 14
  • Discipline: 2
  • Intellect: 20
  • Strength: 11
  • Total: 65

(Warlock Exotic gauntlets)

Ophidian Aspect

Ophidian Aspect is a beloved PvP Exotic for Warlocks. The effect is simple: You ready and reload your weapons much more quickly than normal. That makes it a great all-around workhorse for taking down other Guardians, regardless of the build you’re running.

  • Mobility: 15
  • Resilience: 6
  • Recovery: 11
  • Discipline: 17
  • Intellect: 10
  • Strength: 6
  • Total: 65

Exotic Weapons

Lord of Wolves (Exotic shotgun)

Lord of Wolves

Though it’s been nerfed to downgrade its devastating power, Lord of Wolves is still a lot of fun to use. It’s a shotgun that feels like a pulse rifle thanks to its two firing modes. The first shoots a blast of hot shrapnel like a normal shotgun, but switching to Release the Wolves mode lets go of a burst of shrapnel shots that can be ridiculous at close ranges. You can’t quite melt Guardians in the Crucible with it like you used to, but it’ll still dish out quite a bit of punishment.

  • Shrapnel Launcher
  • Chambered Compensator
  • Extended Mag
  • Release the Wolves
  • Composite Stock

Hawkmoon (Exotic hand cannon)

Hawkmoon

Rangefinder is generally the go-to perk for Hawkmoon, and Xur’s version this week is a solid offering. The extra range will serve you well in the Crucible, although Combat Grip isn’t the preferred grip for Hawkmoon when you could have the added stability of Smooth Grip.

  • Paracausal Shot
  • Hammer-Forged Rifling
  • Alloy Magazine
  • Rangefinder
  • Combat Grip

Xur is present every weekend in Destiny 2, starting with the daily reset at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET each Friday. His exact location is always a mystery when he first arrives, as he is not listed on the map, and for novice players, he can be easy to miss. However, there are a set number of locations where he takes up residence, including the Tower Hangar area, on Nessus in Watcher’s Grave, and in the Winding Cove area of the EDZ.

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre Teases New Killer Ahead Of Double XP Weekend

Gun Media and Nighthawk Interactive, the publishers behind the asymmetrical survival horror game The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, have recently teased a new Family member (the game’s version of killers) to join its ever-growing roster of characters.

The news comes from a teaser posted to the official Gun Media YouTube channel. Although the video isn’t that long, it starts with the character Virginia searching through a toolbox and is quickly interrupted by Hands, the newest member of the Family, the playable killers in the game. Even though this trailer doesn’t show him in action, we do know that his weapon of choice will be a hammer. Gun Media is even aware of how menacing he is because, in a press release, the studio makes it a point to say, “That boy is big!”

That wasn’t the only announcement that the studio made. In addition to teasing a new character, players will be able to take advantage of double XP weekend that’ll take place from March 17 – 20.

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre has received a steady stream of content this year. In March, players not only received a new map called The Mill but also the ability to play as a new Survivor. Then, in February, Gun Media turned one of its killers into a thirst trap.

For more on The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, check out our story highlighting how Gun media went the extra mile to ensure the world felt more lifelike and unsettling.

New Game From Former GTA Boss Will Be Introduced Via An Upcoming Audio Series

Absurd Ventures, the studio created by former GTA boss Dan Houser, has announced that its upcoming video game universe, A Better Paradise, will kick off with an audio series that’s scheduled to release on June 10 on all major podcast platforms.

The upcoming audio series, written and created by Houser, will be called “A Better Paradise: Volume One: An Aftermath” and will consist of 12 episodes. It will feature various actors, such as Andrew Lincoln from The Walking Dead, Shamier Anderson from John Wick: Chapter 4, and Rain Spencer, who starred in The Summer I Turned Pretty.

Volume One: An Aftermath is just the first of many projects the studio is working on. The studio has confirmed that various TV shows and video games are set in the same world as A Better Paradise.

According to a press release, the upcoming series tells the story of the “ill-fated development of an ambitious but addictive digital game-world project led by inventor and psychologist Dr. Mark Tyburn.” Eventually, the team abandoned the project, only for it to be discovered by someone else.

Absurd Ventures was created in 2021, a year after Houser left Rockstar. What’s notable about Houser’s newly created studio is, as this news suggests, that its work will be featured in various mediums. Future projects may also include animation and comic books.

Stranger Things 5 Photo Teases More Nancy And Jonathan Drama

Because the Byers family moved out of Hawkins at the end of Stranger Things Season 3, Jonathan Byers (Charlie Heaton) and his girlfriend, Nancy Wheeler (Natalia Dyer), didn’t get many scenes together in Season 4. There were even some signs that the relationship was in trouble and potentially coming to an end. However, one of the first pictures from Stranger Things Season 5 shows Jonathan and Nancy back together, doing what they do best: getting in over their heads in danger.

Those aren’t happy expressions on their faces, so we’ll just have to assume that Jonathan and Nancy are seeing something horrifying. And although he’s not pictured, the safe assumption is that Steve Harrington (Joe Keery) is driving his car. Last season, Nancy and Jonathan both faced dangerous situations without each other. Since the series ends with this fifth season, it’s nice to know they’re facing the latest threat together.

Additionally, since the Season 4 finale opened up Hawkins even further to the Upside Down, there’s a strong chance that our two lovebirds are reacting to something otherworldly that shouldn’t exist in this plane. And we wouldn’t be shocked if more creatures from the Upside Down crossover to our world as well.

Stranger Things Season 5 is currently in production and will premiere on Netflix in 2025.

Fortnite Festival Just Did Something It’s Never Done Before

Epic is teaming up with renowned singer Billie Eilish to introduce three new songs from her newly released album, Hit Me Hard And Soft, to Fortnite Festival. The newly added songs from the album are playable today as of 5 PM PT/8 PM ET.

This marks the first time music has come to Fortnite Festival on the same day it released elsewhere. The upcoming songs that players will be able to jam out to will consist of “Chihiro,” “The Diner,” And “Lunch.”

It’s also worth mentioning that Fortnite Festival season 3 is centered around Billie Eilish, similar to how season 2 was with Lady Gaga. Several songs of hers, as well as three in-game skins and other accessories, are available for purchase.

Billie Eilish isn’t the only singer Epic has collaborated with. As previously mentioned, the studio recently partnered with Lady Gaga. But in the past, Epic has worked with artists such as The Weeknd, Travis Scott, J Balvin, and even Eminem. Although not all of them have songs in Fortnite Festival they all have skins in the game.

This wasn’t the only announcement Fortnite made today. In preparation for Chapter 5 Season 3’s launch, the studio teased a crossover with Bethesda’s Fallout.

If you’d rather enjoy the upcoming collection as an audiobook, consider checking out Audible.

Or, if you want the complete opposite Stephen King experience, check out The Dark Tower eight-book box set for $77 (list price is $161). The Dark Tower series is King’s longest work, and these eight dark fantasy novels are stellar reads, even if you don’t like King’s traditional horror.

Need A PS5 Or Xbox For EA Sports College Football? Check Out These Great Deals

EA Sports College Football 25 is due to hit this summer, but that comes with a caveat for fans: It’s not going to be available on older consoles or PC. So while you can preorder College Football 25 on PlayStation 5 and on Xbox Series X from Amazon right now, you might also be in the market for one of those shiny new(ish) game consoles on which to play it.

Luckily, Walmart has you covered with some discounted PS5 Slim and Xbox Series X consoles, both of which come bundled with games to get your new console library started. The PS5 Slim bundle comes with Spider-Man 2, while the Xbox Series X bundle packs in Diablo 4.

$449 (Valued at $560)

Sony’s Spider-Man 2 PS5 Slim bundle was one of the most popular gaming products over the holidays, but most retailers ran out of stock months ago when the promotion officially expired. Walmart was in this camp, but surprisingly, the bundle has returned. Valued at $560, the bundle includes a PS5 Slim with a 1TB SSD, a digital download code for Spider-Man 2, and a DualSense controller. Even if you don’t care about Spider-Man 2, you’re still saving $50 off the price of the PS5 Slim with a disc drive.

$470 (valued at $560)

Microsoft’s Xbox Series X bundle comes with some solid benefits if you’re a Diablo fan. Alongside the Series X console, which sports a 1TB SSD, you get a digital download code for Diablo 4, and a few digital goodies for the game: the Light-Bearer mount with the Caparison of Faith mount armor. The bundle also packs digital items for Diablo 3 and Diablo Immortal, as well as a wireless controller. This bundle is shipped and sold by Antonline, a reputable retailer of tech and gaming products.

While both the PS5 and Xbox are offered in digital-only versions, both these consoles sport disc drives, if keeping physical media around is important to you.

You’ve got a few other options for preordering College Football 25 so you can be ready for game day when it launches on July 19. The game comes in three different editions at various price points, with the standard edition running you the usual price of $70. If you spring for the Deluxe Edition of MVP Bundle, at $100 and $150 respectively, you’ll get access to the game three days ahead of everyone else, along with Ultimate Team packs, in-game currency, and digital uniform items. The MVP Bundle also comes with the Deluxe Edition of Madden NFL 25. Check out our full College Football 25 preorder guide for all the details.
