Destiny's Xur Agent of the Nine, the merchant within the Tower, has returned for the 22-24 January weekend and is offering new exotic weapons, armours and other rare goods that can be exchanged with Strange Coins. Xur appears only on weekends.
Over the past several weeks, Xur is not showing up with fan-favourite exotic item Gjallarhorn.
Last week, he showed up with Ruin Wings, Celestial Nighthawk and The Impossible Machines, which have been offered several times before.
So when we compare it to last time's offerings, we cannot complain much. Nevertheless, these offerings from Xur are something Destiny players look forward to and he has released a new set of exotic gears this week as well.
This is Week 72 of Xur's appearance. Xur will be found standing in the Hall of Guardians. He will only be available from Friday 5 am ET till 5 am on Sunday.
Here are the items in Xur's inventory for the 22-24 January weekend:
