Some light has been shed on Destiny 2‘s Beta start times and Clans feature and how it will integrate with existing clans in Destiny. Bungie has detailed the steps that players who run clans will have to take in order to make sure that their clans are carried over to the new experience when the sequel releases in September for the PS4, Xbox One and PC.

Destiny 2 Beta Start Times & Clans Transfer Information
First off, we know the beta runs from July 18th-23rd. Here are the start times per platform:
-
Destiny 2 beta – PS4 start times
- Pre-order early access: 10:00am PT July 18
- General access: 10:00am PT July 21
-
Destiny 2 beta – Xbox One start times
- Pre-order early access: 10:00am PT July 19
- General access: 10:00am PT July 21
-
Destiny 2 beta – PC
- Pre-order early access: “late August”
- General access: “late August”
When it comes to clans, starting on July 25, 2017, which is just after the July 18-23 beta, Clan leaders should visit their base of operations on Bungie.net and decide if they want to convert their Group to a Destiny 2 Clan. Clan Founders will be able to transfer their title and permissions to another member if they wish to no longer lead. You can also opt out and leave your existing group as is. This housekeeping period will last for one month. After that time, new Clan creation functionality will go live on Bungie.net to support Destiny 2.

The clans in Destiny 2 will retain their basic format and will be capped at 100 members. Clans in Destiny 2 will enjoy new features in the game. Clans will be the guides, leading solo players on missions, strikes and raids. You’ll be able to manage your Roster and send invitations to new members right in game. Every Guardian in a clan will earn rewards based on the success of their teammates.
As expected there will be some bumps and bruises in the transition to the new game. In addition to the transition news, the Iron Banner is back next week and the game is Mayhem Clash.
