While we remember some of our favorite Destiny characters who have fallen, and their beautiful horns, Festival of the Lost is a chance to celebrate our continued fight in their honor. This year, we’re hosting the Festival of the Lost Costume Contest. ![]() From now through 6 PM PDT on October 31, use masks, armor, and shaders to create an in-game costume. Pick the perfect setting and take a pic. Then, using the #FestivalofCostumes hashtag, share your screenshot to the Community Creations page, Twitter, or Instagramto enter. Ten winners will be celebrated via @Bungie on Halloween day and treated with the unique emblem we reserve for all our best artists. Group shots are welcome. Humor encouraged. Put on a mask, and go show the bad guys they can’t keep us down. Live Your Best QOL A few weeks ago, we gave you a short preview of what to expect in Destiny 2 Update 2.0.5.

Good luck in your hunt for Malfeasance. Refer-a-Friend Update 2.0.5 brings more than just quality-of-life updates to the game. Starting October 30, the Destiny 2: Forsaken Refer-a-Friend program becomes available! Veteran players may begin to refer new players to Forsaken, via a link on Bungie.net, and embark on the Refer-a-Friend quest. Veterans, it’s on you to show your referral the ropes. The quest gives you ample time to get your friend up to speed on everything Destiny 2, from perk sets to raid loadouts. New players, this is your time to learn what it is to be a Guardian. As you complete steps throughout the quest, both of you—veteran and referral—will earn some sleek rewards to commemorate your camaraderie. ![]() ![]() If you happen to have multiple friends to refer, there’s more loot to earn.

If you experience issues while playing Destiny 2: Forsaken, let us know about it in the #Help Forum. Weekly Broadcast ![]() This week, we’ve gotten a few Guardians who’ve decided to break from the norm. Their loadout of choice isn’t common among the player base, but the goals they’ve set—and achieved—are something to behold. Movie of the Week: Kill. Disappear. Repeat. Honorable Mention: Luna’s Howl vs. Calus If you’d like a shot at the Lens of Fate emblem, make sure to submit your video to the Creations page on Bungie.net and include #MOTW in your title. This weekend, Cozmo and I will be heading to San Jose, California, for TwitchCon. If you’re attending as a content creator, cosplayer, or Guardian, we’re excited to spend some time with you and share war stories. Who knows, maybe this could lead to a Bungie Bounty being placed on your head.
