91

Destiny 2’s annual free in-game event Guardian Games kicked off today and lasts until the end of Season of Defiant on May 23. Also returning today is the Guardian Games Cup, a competition where players have a chance to win fantastic prizes and raise money for charity.

Guardian Games 2023The Guardian Games is a friendly competition in which players compete for their favorite class (Hunter, Warlock and Titan). During the Guardian Games, players earn medallions for various in-game activities, including a class-based version of the popular PvP mode Supremacy. During the in-game event, players can earn two Guardian Games weapons:

• Taraxippos – The first Legendary Strand Scout Rifle in the game.
• The Title – The Void Submachine Gun makes its comeback with updates, including the fan-favorite perk: Repulsor Brace.

A free Guardian Games Event Card is also available to players. By completing challenges on this card, players can earn cosmetic rewards. These include a new Exotic emote, the brand new “Champ” title and additional Triumphs. The Event Card can be upgraded for 1,000 Silver to unlock additional rewards.

Guardian Games Cup 2023Bungie invites everyone to participate in the Guardian Games Cup. Players together with their fireteam can win prizes and raise money for charity. Teams can compete in two categories: ‘Technical’ and ‘Charitable’. The Technical category tracks the total number of medals achieved by an officially registered fireteam during the Guardian Games. The Charitable category tracks the total amount the team raises through the Bungie Foundation’s official registration page.

The top four teams in each category will win some great prizes, including:

• Top team in the Technical category: custom art of your fireteam by PherianArt
• Top team in the Charity category: custom art of your fireteam by Gammatrap
• Top two teams in the Technical and Charitable categories: Guardian Games pendant (€192.00 MSRP)
• Top three teams in the Technical and Charitable categories: Apricot Dawn emblem
• Top four teams in the Technical and Charitable categories: discount codes for the Bungie Store

Participants who collect $25 or higher will receive the Quantum Relay emblem.

In partnership with the Bungie Foundation, this year’s proceeds will be donated to Direct Relief and the International Rescue Committee, making an impact worldwide.
