Bungie has announced the start of the Annual Guardian Games in Destiny 2. The Guardian Games in Destiny 2 is a friendly competition between Hunters, Warlocks, and Titans and it encourages Guardians everywhere to compete as their favorite class for fame and glory. The free in-game event is now live in Destiny 2, and it will run for three weeks until the end of Season of Defiance on May 23, 2023. During the Guardian Games, players will earn medallions for activities across the game, which includes a class-based version of the popular PvP mode Supremacy.
While participating in the event, players will be able to earn two Guardian Games weapons:
- Taraxippos – The first Legendary Strand Scout Rifle in the game.
- The Title – The Void Submachine Gun is back with updates, including the fan-favorite perk, Repulsor Brace.
All participating players will also get the free Guardian Games Event Card. As you complete the challenges on your card, you will unlock exclusive cosmetic rewards like a new Exotic emote, the brand-new Champ title, along with extra Triumphs. The Event Card can also be upgraded for 1,000 Silver to unlock instant and additional earnable rewards. To kick off the event, Bungie has released a new trailer for Guardian Games. We have linked it below for you:
If you have a Fireteam, you can also take part in this year’s Guardian Games Cup where you can raise money for charity as well. Teams will compete in the Technical and Charitable categories. The Technical Category tracks each officially registered team’s total number of medals dunked during Guardian Games. The Charitable category tracks the total amount raised through the team’s official Bungie Foundation sign-up page throughout the same period.
The top four teams in each category will be awarded with some sweet prizes, including:
- Top team in the Technical category: custom art of your fireteam by PherianArt
- Top team in the Charitable category: custom art of your fireteam by Gammatrap
- Top two teams in the Technical and Charitable categories: Guardian Games Pendant ($200)
- Top three teams in the Technical and Charitable categories: Apricot Dawn emblem
- Top four teams in the Technical and Charitable categories: Bungie Store discount codes
There will also be an excellent donation reward for participants to enjoy:
- $25 and above – Quantum Relay emblem
Bungie is also partnering with the Bungie Foundation to send the funds raised this year to both Direct Relief and the Internation Rescue Committee equally. Additional details about the charity as well as on how you can sign up for the Guardian Games Cup are found on the official blog post.
