Destiny 2
It’s Valentine’s Day! The day of love and video games! Well, maybe not video games officially, but every day is a day for video games.
Some games are getting into the spirit of Valentine’s Day with varying events, sales, or special modes. Celebrate with loved ones! Or yourself! It doesn’t matter, as long as you have fun. Here are 4 games with Valentine’s Day events this year, some of which you can play with your Valentine. What are you waiting for? Hop on over and get some love day bling!
In Bungie Studio’s sci-fi shared shooter, Guardians hundreds of years from now still recognize some well-loved holidays from today, and Valentine’s Day is no exception. If you log into Destiny 2 this week, you’ll find that the Tower is in full swing for the event called Crimson Days. Lord Shaxx has added a new Crucible playlist, a 2v2 Clash with a special twist:
The sun is darkened and the only Light to be found comes from you and your partner fighting as one. Stay in close proximity to your partner and your abilities recharge at a faster rate. Stray too far, and your enemies will be given a waypoint leading to your location. If you can’t find a partner, don’t worry. We’ll play matchmaker and find one for you.
Lord Shaxx as matchmaker is equal parts fantastic and utterly terrifying.
In addition to the new mode, you’ll be able to find more loot, from special Crimson Engrams, as long as you’re max level. Some of it is even unique loot to this event, which can be acquired by completing a variety of in-game tasks. Those tasks include completing the Leviathan Raid, Nightfall Strike, and by completing matches in the Crimson Days playlist.
