2h – Destiny 2 Community Team
This Week in Destiny, we are a day late because yesterday was a holiday for some of us. We hope everyone in the United States had a nice Fourth of July and that reading a TWID on Friday feels a bit like using a Golden Gun on a Warlock or a Titan: it shouldn’t be possible, but Still Hunt exists. So, let’s look at our topics for today.
- Tune in for our Echoes: Act II livestream.
- Bungie Day is almost here!
- Iron Banner continues next week.
- Check out these cool wallpapers.
- We hear “echoes” of amazing community art.
- Our METORO manga collab is complete.
Onwards!
READY FOR OUR ACT II LIVESTREAM?
Tune in for our next developer livestream on July 9 at 10:00 AM PT (check here for your local time), where we will preview the new content coming with Echoes: Act II. We’ll have three members of our dev team ready to talk about how the story will unfold and what new activities and rewards are coming.
Speaking of rewards, we’ll also have Twitch Drops enabledso everyone who watches 15 minutes or more during the livestream will earn the Ooo Shiny emblem in the game. Yeah, that’s its name! Just make sure you have your Twitch account linked on Bungie.net before the stream starts.
HAPPY BUNGIE DAY!
Next Sunday is a very special day for our studio. You guessed it: it’s Bungie Day! This year, we are celebrating with a special Bungie Foundation PvP tournament and some amazing discounts for the Bungie Store.
INTRODUCING THE BUNGIE FOUNDATION TOURNAMENT
Bungie Day is right around the corner, and the Bungie Foundation has some exciting news to share around this year’s campaign, which we have dubbed Seventh Column Chaos. Between July 9 and July 28, some of the Foundation’s biggest supporters will be competing for bragging rights and glory in a 16-team PvP tournament. But this won’t be your average sweat fest. Pre-determined match modifiers, loadout restrictions, and custom game types will ratchet up the fun and keep our teams on their toes. We may even call on our community to help us throw a last-minute curveball at the competitors.
Whether you’re competing in the tournament, want to host your own fundraiser, or are looking to donate to support the Foundation’s work to support children’s well-being, inclusion, diversity,equity, and humanitarian work, every Guardian can make a real-world difference for those in need around the globe. Moments like Cooper’s Make-A-Wish visit to the Bungie Studio a reality are only possible thanks to your donations.https://www.youtube.com/embed/3jNkpY9N_K0

WANNA SEE A SILLY VIDEO?
Making games is hard, but we always find time to have fun and do silly stuff. How silly, you may ask? Well, check this out.

We hope you’ve been having tons of fun in Iron Banner. Saladin is tough, but his training is priceless, especially now that he has implemented some Cabal war tactics into the event. This is a general reminder of what we announced last week, that Iron Banner will now be a two-week event with a different game mode each week. This first week is Control, and next week will be Tribute. It gives you more time to gild your Iron Lord title and get more Crimil’s Dagger and Claws of the Wolf rolls.
