Destiny 2: Return of the Iron Lord - Iron Banner Event Starts Next Week
It's a new week for Bungie's Destiny 2 which means new resets, new events, and new updates. [...]
"As the first Faction Rally comes to an end, the Iron Lords are hosting the next ritual. Their special event has undergone some changes. The Iron Banner is still your chance to stand and be proven in the fires of friendly competition."
The Iron Banner will kick off on October 10th at 2 AM PT and will run until October 17th until the same time. Players can team up with their own friends or use the matching system to be randomly paired - either way, there are coveted rewards waiting for those that come out of the Iron Banner as the victor.
One important thing to notate about the upcoming event is that one of the prerequisites requires players to have already completed the Destiny 2 campaign. Once the main narrative wraps up, head to the Tower to speak with Lord Saladin in order to unlock the Iron Banner.
