1 Comments

Destiny gets a Halloween makeover of sorts today, as the game's Festival of the Lost event has begun. A patch that introduced the spooky content came out at 2 AM PT / 5 AM ET earlier today.

As announced previously, Destiny's Festival of the Lost event runs October 25 through November 8. During that time, players can unlock new masks, gear, emotes, and consumables themed around Halloween and things that are spooky/creepy/weird. Additionally, there is a new quest in the Iron Temple, which was introduced to Destiny in September's Rise of Iron expansion.
