Xur today is ready to go out with a bang. It’s the final Destiny 2 Xur location of April and, as it’s only been a few weeks since he’s started selling Forsaken Exotics, the Xur inventory remains as fresh and exciting as ever. So, not only will we be finding out where Xur is today, April 26 before anyone us, we’ll also have a brief look at his weapons and armor on offer to see if it’s worth making the trip. So, don’t be flummoxed by Xur today; scroll on down and take a look at everything you need to know about the mysterious merchant, including the exact Xur start time.
Destiny 2 Xur Location | Where is Xur Today? (April 26)
Xur only ever sets out his (metaphorical) stall on one of five planets. Last week, he chose the EDZ, so we can be quietly confident he won’t be there again. However, as soon as the Xur start time – see below for that in the US and UK time zones – ticks over, then he’ll arrive on either Io, Titan, The Tower, or Nessus.
Destiny 2 Xur location: Titan near The Rig Landing Zone
Destiny 2 Xur Start Time | When Does Xur Arrive Today? (April 26)
Set your watches. If you’re in the US, Xur arrives at 10 AM Pacific, which is 1 PM Eastern for those of you on the East Coast. If you see the “New Adventures Available” message, then Xur will turn up just seconds later.
As for those in the UK, the Xur start time is at 6 PM BST.
Destiny 2 Xur Inventory | What is Xur Selling Today? (April 26)
For the unitiated, the Xur inventory this week (and every week, for that matter) comes packed with one armor piece per class, as well as one weapon. Forsaken Exotics are now fair game, too, for those who own the DLC, and will be marked accordingly.
- Gauntlets (Titan): Doom Fang Pauldron (23 Legendary Shards)
- Leg Armor (Hunter): Lucky Pants (23 Legendary Shards)
- Gauntlets (Warlock): Aeon Soul (23 Legendary Shards)
- Weapon: Sweet Business Auto Rifle (29 Legendary Shards)
But that’s not all. There’s an Isochronal Engram for 97 Legendary Shards, which guarantees you a brand-new (hopefully rare) Exotic that you otherwise haven’t set eyes upon. Xur is also still dishing out his Invitation of the Nine bounties for nine Legendary Shards if you wish to continue following the path down that lore-heavy rabbit hole.

Destiny's 10 Most Exotic Weapons
One of the main draws of Destiny is the guns. This is a loot shooter through and through, and Bungie has crafted a huge arsenal of interesting firearms to go after. While there are many standard weapons, a handful of rare selections really push the envelope. Here are Destiny's 10 most exotic weapons. -
Bad Juju
A fantastic Pulse Rifle, Bad Juju's main aesthetic is death. That skeletal spine and skull hood ornament really make it stand out from the crowd. The gun also rewards successive kills, so you can feed it more death and charge your super move at the same time. -
Fighting Lion
A sterling silver grenade launcher, the Fighting Lion's magnificent big cat finish is just the most obvious of its advantages. It's got all the buffs you'd want from a noob tube and it blasts apart shields on direct hits. Certainly, a great option if you're looking to shake things up. -
Gjallarhorn
A legend among legends, Gjallarhorn was the exotic to grab during both its reigns over Destiny's meta. It's a flaming rocket launcher with a huge silver eagle etched onto the top. The rockets it fires can be upgraded to split into tracking "wolfpack" rounds, meaning that no one is running away. -
Sleeper Simulant
When you say the words Fusion Rifle, you think of something that looks like the Sleeper Simulant. The prototype rail gun look is definitely in. The lasers it fires goes straight through enemies and also ricochets off walls. It's an easy way to score a triple kill if you're good with your aim. -
Telesto
Do you want a fusion rifle that shoots black holes? Or "void blasts" as the Destiny people might say? Telesto is your gun. While it looks like a random configuration from Borderlands' weapon generator, its large range and ability to reload your spare guns make it a great choice in the field. -
The Wardcliff Coil
OK, we may have said that Sleeper Simulant looked like a prototype, but this Wardcliff Coil looks like a prototype of that prototype. It's as if someone tore parts off of a passing space station and then used a genie to wish them into a gun. What a cool look. -
Touch Of Malice
With the Touch Of Malice, you can't help but feel Bungie reaching back into its past. Sure, this exotic scout rifle doesn't fire grenades, but it sure does look a whole lot like the Brute Shot. It's got that weird side handle and the underslung blade. Either way, a great design. -
Trinity Ghoul
One of two bows introduced in the latest Destiny 2 expansion, the Trinity Ghoul proves that Bungie is more than happy to break the rules of its own FPS. Sure, you'd probably rather have a minigun, but maybe some snipers might enjoy going back to basics with this most historic of weapons. -
Two-Tailed Fox
The Two-Tailed Fox is enormous. A huge colorful rocket launcher, it fires two distinct projectiles, each with a different payload. One fires void, the black hole juice we mentioned earlier. The other fires Solar, which involves burning your target. Combined, it's just not a very good time for whoever's on the receiving end. -
Worldline Zero
Much like the Bows introduced in Forsaken, the original Destiny had a whole class of weapon that didn't involve bullets and ammo. They were swords, and there are now quite a few blades to choose from. Perhaps the Crucible could use a Medieval Mode now that both are in the game.
