When does the Path of the Splicer quest expire?

Though Path of the Splicer is the seasonal quest for Season of the Splicer, it doesn't have to be completed fully before the season ends.

Provided you've started Path of the Splicer while the quest was initially active, these steps - as well as all associated activities, including Override and the Expunge missions - will remain in the game until the end of Season 15, or until the start of 'Year 5' when The Witch Queen expansion arrives.

This is all part of Bungie's attempts to address FOMO (fear of missing out), allowing you to continue to play previous activities for longer, even if later seasons shift their focus to new ones.
