Tharsis Expanse

The Tharsis Expanse is a Martian region used by the Renegades expansion as the home of the Lawless Frontier.

Overview

It is a Martian outpost region of outlaws and outcasts. Tharsis Outpost in Meridian Bay became known as Tharsis Outpost after the war against the Witness, and is the lair of three rival syndicates: the Pikers, the Tharsis Reformation and the Totality Division. Players operate from the Tharsis Cantina social space after finishing the Renegades story and gaining access to the Lawless Frontier.

Activities

The region's activities include Freehold Outskirts and Hellas Fortitude, each with Bounty Hunt, Sabotage and Smuggle variants in private and matchmade forms. The Lawless Frontier also sends players to Venus and Europa for bounties.

How to get there

Destiny 2: Renegades launched on 2 December 2025 as the tenth and final Destiny 2 expansion, with Star Wars-style inspiration: the Tharsis Cantina hub parallels the Mos Eisley Cantina. Access to the Lawless Frontier follows the Renegades story.

Lawless Frontier

The Lawless Frontier spans Mars, Venus and Europa, with bounties for three outlaw factions (Cabal, Fallen, Vex) in contested and uncontested territories. Tharsis Outpost connects to the Tharsis Bazaar and Tharsis Cantina, is classed as a Public Sector area, and has a hidden Golden Chest and a dead Ghost, plus NPCs who give quests and dialogue.
