The ISRO's lunar orbiter Chandrayaan-2 photographed the landing site of the IM-2 mission, and it gives a great visual as to what happened to the unfortunate spacecraft.
You can follow the path it took before falling on its side in a crater. Considering how it's basically in the center of the crater, that helps explain why it couldn't regenerate its batteries and died so quickly.

Besides sharing the imagery, Blue Ghost has 10 NASA science and technology instruments aboard as part of the space agency’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services, or CLPS, initiative.
CLPS is part of NASA’s broader Artemis program, which aims to land astronauts on the moon for the first time in more than 50 years.
The instruments are currently working to collect data primarily on the moon’s subsurface, such as lunar dust and regolith, the loose rocks and mineral fragments that cover the lunar surface.
Shortly after the sunset, the lander will continue to operate for several hours during the lunar nighttime before the period of darkness and cold temperatures are expected to cause the spacecraft to cease operations.
"Commercial Lunar Payload Services" God I wish we'd just nationalize all this shit
We Just Took a Major Step Forward in our Moon Landing Program
As part of the Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative, we’ve selected the first American companies that will deliver our science and technology payloads to the Moon.
Seen above from left to right are lander prototypes from:
Astrobotic of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Intuitive Machines of Houston, Texas
Orbit Beyond of Edison, New Jersey
Astrobotic of Pittsburgh has proposed to fly as many as 14 payloads to a large crater on the near side of the Moon.
Intuitive Machines of Houston has proposed to fly as many as five payloads to a scientifically intriguing dark spot on the Moon.
Orbit Beyond of Edison, New Jersey, has proposed to fly as many as four payloads to a lava plain in one of the Moon’s craters.
Each company is charged with demonstrating technology that will shape the development of future landers and other exploration systems needed for humans to return to the Moon’s surface under the new Artemis program. Artemis is the program that will send the first woman and the next man to the Moon by 2024 and develop a sustainable human presence on the Moon by 2028. The program takes its name from the twin sister of Apollo and goddess of the Moon in Greek mythology.
Together we are going to the Moon—to stay.
