It is the sequel to the "Destiny of X" publishing initiative, and is the final initiative in the Krakoan Age of the X-Men.[1] The phase started with the third annual Hellfire Gala (July 2023)[2] and culminated in the dual interconnected miniseries Fall of the House of X and Rise of the Powers of X (January 2024 – May 2024). The phase's final issue, X-Men #35 (legacy Uncanny X-Men #700) was released in June 2024.[3] It is followed by line relaunch titled X-Men: From the Ashes.

Perspective
The final phase was kicked off in the third annual Hellfire Gala (July 2023) which drastically altered the status quo of series;[2][5] this event was written by Gerry Duggan, with art by Adam Kubert, Luciano Vecchio, Matteo Lolli, Russell Dauterman, Javier Pina, R.B. Silva, Joshua Cassara, Kris Anka, and Pepe Larraz.[6] In August 2023, Kieron Gillen commented that "part of the idea from Sins of Sinister to Fall of X was a lot of the small things going wrong. Obviously, what happened at the Hellfire Gala was big, but those events are based upon a series of small catastrophes that added up".[7]
This phase then culminated in the dual interconnected miniseries Fall of the House of X and Rise of the Powers of X (January 2024 – May 2024);[8][9] Duggan wrote Fall of the House of X with art by Werneck.[10] Gillen continued as a main writer on multiple series in this phase such as Rise of the Powers of X with artist R.B. Silva, the ongoing Immortal X-Men conclusion and the limited series X-Men: Forever (March 2024) with artist Luca Maresca.[11][12][13] Al Ewing concluded the ongoing X-Men Red with artist Yildiray Çinar.[14][15]
The final issue X-Men #35 (legacy Uncanny X-Men #700) was published in June 2024;[3] the end of the issue previews the next publishing initiative X-Men: From The Ashes with Xavier telepathically "witnessing mutants trying to re-integrate into human society and facing the same fear and hatred they always have" in the post-Krakoan Age.[16] X-Men: The Wedding Special celebrated the relationship between Mystique and Destiny;[17][18] while the issue was published in May 2024, Gillen commented that it "is set between the incoming and outgoing administrations - I'm both giving a little after credit scene to my Immortal X-Men stories, and setting up what's coming next".[19]
In May 2024, X-Men Group Editor Jordan D. White commented that the anthology collection "format was shelved" and there would not be compiled trade paperbacks for Destiny of X or Fall of X.[20]
