Destiny 2’s new Weekly Challenges are here – here’s how to earn plenty of Bright Dust and XP in Season of the Haunted via Destiny 2 Seasonal Challenges.
Destiny 2’s Season of the Haunted is here, and that means there’s a whole new Season Pass and Seasonal Artefact to level up. The easiest way to max both of them out is to complete the game’s weekly seasonal challenges.
These offer a great opportunity to level up your season pass in the game, earning sizeable amounts of XP for each one completed. Another benefit is Bright Dust, Bungie’s free-to-earn currency that allows players to buy a selection of rotating premium items including Armor Ornaments, emotes, and weapon customization options.
Here’s every Season of the Haunted seasonal challenge for all ten weeks.
