Destiny 2’s seasonal challenges are back, offering plenty of rewards to help level your season pass, so here’s how to earn plenty of Bright Dust and XP in Destiny 2’s Season of Plunder Seasonal Challenges. 

Destiny 2‘s Season of Plunder is here, and that means there’s a new Season Pass and Seasonal Artifact to level up. Thankfully, the game’s weekly seasonal challenges are a great way to power through the levels.

These arrive in batches each week, and award XP, the occasional weapon, and Bright Dust — a free-to-earn currency that lets players buy the game’s premium items in a rotating section of the store.

Here’s every Season of Plunder seasonal challenge so far.

Destiny 2 seasonal challenges for Season of Plunder

Throughout the season, players can expect ten weeks of Destiny 2 seasonal challenges. Some are simple, like completing a series of Strikes or Crucible matches, while others ramp up to completing the Nightfall on Grandmaster difficulty or winning matches in Trials of Osiris.

Expect things to be fairly simple, to begin with at least, before adding much tougher challenges in the weeks to come.
