Destiny 2

Festival of the Lost 2023




What will you dress up as?  



Go grab your favorite Festival mask in the Tower, Guardians, and brave chilling challenges to score candy along the way. Turn in that sugar for all sorts of ghastly goodies. 




Things are about to get... creepy 



The votes are in for the event armor ornaments, and this year, players decided on two options, based on your class: spider-themed sets for Hunters and Titans and beetle-themed sets for Warlocks. 




Wicked weapons 



Trick or treat your way to a new Acosmic Legendary Heavy Grenade Launcher and other Festival weapons—all ghoulishly good for blasting pumpkin-headed fiends into candy bits. 




A ghostly good time 



Brave your way through Haunted Sectors battling Headless Ones. Earn Eerie Engrams containing a variety of rewards, which you can then decrypt or focus them for Exotic armor and special Festival weapons. Legendary mode boosts your chance to get even more goodies! 




Lost, but not forgotten 



Complete the challenges on your Event Card to rack up tickets. Upgrade your Event Card to trade your tickets in for even more Festival of the Lost-themed rewards, including emblems, emotes, shaders, and ships. 




Summon a little Destiny into the real world 



Earn the chance to get your very own Headless Ones tote containing two Festival of the Lost pins, available through Bungie Rewards. 

THIS WEEK IN DESTINY – 09/28/2023

Happy Twidsday, Guardians! We are back this week with some previews and new rewards to earn! How have you been enjoying the Season of the Witch story? How many Altars have you completed so far? Thoughts on Checkmate? Speaking of Checkmate, keep reading to learn about some changes coming soon! Make sure you’re sounding off on socials so our teams can read your feedback. Read more in our blog here.

This Week In Destiny - 09/14/2023

This week in Destiny, we have to talk about Legendary Shards. Check your Destiny 2 inventory—it's those purple spiky things you might have in the thousands (or tens of thousands). They look like weird, sour candy, right? Maybe they taste like grapes? Or blueberries? Oh, no, that's the kind of dark thought a Hive acolyte would have, and we are also missing the point here, so let's focus a bit and recap last week's TWID before jumping to the news:

  • Final call for the Guardians for Maui fundraiser.
  • Update from our PvP Strike team.
  • Show us those Tessellation clips!
  • New ritual armor sets.
  • World First race winners interview.

And this is the menu for today:

  • We explain the process of Legendary Shard deprecation.
  • Some new info and updates on the Crota's End raid.
  • New PvP update previews for Seasons 22 and 23.
  • Checkmate enters the Crucible Labs next week.
  • Improved Trials weapon drops for wins.
  • Tessellation shines bright in these community clips!
  • The weekly Destiny Player Support report.
  • Our latest Art of the Week and Movie of the Week picks.

Got that? You can read the rest of the article here.

This Week In Destiny – 08/31/2023

This week in Destiny, Crota is back in all his rotating, crotating glory.

We're stoked to watch you take him on, but we'll get to that in a minute. Read more on our blog here.

DESTINY 2: THE FINAL SHAPE + ANNUAL PASS - Pre-Order Today



Pre-order today



The Final Shape has been revealed and the Witness’s plans have almost been brought to fruition. This is the hardest challenge you have faced yet, but you won't be alone. Ikora Rey, Commander Zavala, and even a mysteriously returned Cayde-6 will be at your side, ready to walk a path of remembrance and discovery through The Pale Heart of the Traveler itself.

The main story of The Final Shape will be told throughout the course of its campaign, which you will be able to complete with increased difficulty and rewards in the Legendary campaign. Players will explore the familiar yet unsettling panoramas of The Pale Heart, the first linear destination in Destiny 2.

When the campaign has been completed, there's plenty more coming. In the new raid, Guardians will confront the Witness head on and try to break its hold on The Pale Heart. But even that might not be enough... the culmination of the Light and Darkness Saga is upon us, and all Guardians must answer the call if we want to overcome The Final Shape and the Witness once and for all.

The time has come, Guardians. Rally the Vanguard, raise your Light, wield your Darkness, and become legend.

Destiny 2: Season of the Witch




A Ritual Begins 



Eris Morn turns to the magic of the Hive to help the Guardians learn how the Witness entered the portal of the Traveler. To honor our end of the bargain, Guardians must siphon arcane powers. 




Savathûn’s Spire 



Power up the Witch Queen’s Spire, defeat its foul custodians, and gain entry into the Altars of Summoning hidden deep within.    




Altars of Summoning 



Present offerings in the Witch Queen's otherworldly prison to summon and defeat ghastly foes. Channel their power to Eris Morn for her Hive magic experiment. 




Deck of Whispers 



Progress through the Season by earning cards and building a deck of selected rewards and enhancements. Craft a unique deck that’s tailored to your playstyle, and even stack card buffs with your fireteam!  




Ex Diris Exotic Grenade Launcher 



The Season Pass instantly unlocks a Lucent Knight's most quintessential and unrelenting Grenade Launcher. Moths included. Add the Catalyst and Rank 100 ornament to unleash Amplified rage-filled destruction.  




Exotic Armor 



Each new Exotic armor piece is imbued with ancient alchemy. Mothkeeper's Wraps turn your grenade a cage of moths that release on impact, protecting allies and debilitating foes. Pyrogale Guantlets slam your enemies with cyclones of Solar flame. Briarbinds make a Warlock’s Void Souls last longer and gain strength as they defeat targets.  




Season Ornaments 



Sleight of hand, illusions, rituals. Whatever your brand of magic, dazzle your audience with style. These ornate ornaments are reserved for Hive magic masters. 




Crota’s End Raid 



Crota may have been banished from our world, but his threat remains. Travel to Earth's moon, enter the Hellmouth, and confront the Hive prince. This nostalgic Destiny 1 raid, resurrected and reprised for Season of the Witch, will feature a World First race and streaming event. Open to all players. 




Power-Up Your Progress 



Access more than 100 rewards, including XP boosts, Exotic engrams, upgrade materials, cosmetics, and more. 




Exotic Missions and Weapons 



Battle through three reprised Exotic missions (Presage, Vox Obscura, and Operation: Seraph’s Shield) to earn craftable Exotic Weapons. Once your weapon pattern is complete, repeat the missions for more weapons and armo



Story Catch-Up 



Need a refresher on the backstory or want to get up-to-speed? Three playable missions have you covered: Last Call from Forsaken, Commune with Crux from Beyond Light, and The Last Chance from The Witch Queen.
