Destiny 2 Season of the Risen

Destiny 2 Witch Queen: Season of the Risen seasonal and weekly challenges are here, and here’s how to get a lot of Bright Dust and XP from them.

For the first time in a long time, Bungie’s MMO/loot-shooter hybrid Destiny 2 is bringing back the weekly challenges that players have grown to expect from Season of the Risen (Season 16).

These challenges are a terrific way to gain a lot of XP and level up your season pass in the game. Bungie’s free-to-earn currency, Bright Dust, gives players access to a rotating selection of premium items, including weapons, Armor Ornaments, and emotes that may be customized.

Here’s every Season of the Risen seasonal challenge that has been released thus far.

Season 16 of Destiny 2 will have ten weeks of seasonal challenges. Strike or Crucible matches, for example, are easy to complete, but Nightfall on Grandmaster difficulty or winning challenges in Trials of Osiris are more tough.

At the weekly reset, Season of the Risen introduces a new set of challenges, and we’ve compiled a list of all of them below.
