Destiny, Halloween, festive, events, love

One of the secrets to Destiny’s success could be attributed to a consistent stream of free content that Bungie has been releasing following The Taken King expansion. Many of these events were focused around holidays that had been slightly altered to fit into the Destiny world, such as the Halloween inspired Festival of the Lost. Though these seasonal additions don’t drastically change how the game is played, many of these events include new quests and loot for Guardians to obtain.  However, it’s not just the PvE scene that has received some love, as various competitive modes have been releasing on both a monthly and weekly basis.

Both Iron Banner and Trials of Osiris bring players in to test their skills against one another. Given that Destiny lacks the ability to create custom game modes and currently has no real thriving eSports presence, this is really the only high-level play in the game. Also, these PvP events allow players the ability to get some of the best and highest level equipment in Destiny. This gives these events significant weight, as it offers Guardian’s the opportunity to level up quickly.
