  • 2 − Earn medallions by completing various activities and Contender Cards. Submit medallions at the Tower Podium in the Tower.
  • 3 − Participate in the Guardian Games Nightfall Playlist, Guardian Games Supremacy Crucible Mode of Guardian Games Gambit mode to earn a high score and rewards.

Guardian Games Memento

  • You’ll have a chance to earn this special customization item when banking Gold and Platinum Medallions,
  • Completing Diamond Medallions guarantees a Memento.
  • Once you have a Guardian Games All-Stars Memento in your inventory, Eva will store your extra ones until the end of the event. 
  • All additional mementos stored with Eva that aren’t used once the event ends will be removed, so use ’em up!

Heir Apparent Quest & Catalyst

  • This year, Eva Levante offers newcomers and players who missed out last year a quest to earn the Heir Apparent Exotic Machine Gun while participating in Guardian Games!
  • To obtain the quest, begin this year’s Introductory Quest for Guardian Games!

Top of Class Exotic Quest:

  • Step 1: Obtain a medallion – this can be done from completing Eva’s bounties, or completing a Guardian Games Playlist activity.
  • Step 2: Defeat 100 Combatants with a Machine Gun. Guardian kills grant bonus progress.

Once you have the Heir Apparent Exotic Machine Gun, you have the chance to obtain a Catalyst Quest. To increase your chance at obtaining the quest, deposit as many Gold or Platinum medals as you can. Fellow Guardians have noted that the drop rate for the quest has been pretty generous so far! Once you have the quest, there are 3 objectives to complete.

Competitive Catalyst Exotic Quest:

  • Step 1: Earn 50 points by obtaining medals. Higher tier medals are worth more points. 
  • Step 2: Complete 3 Contender Cards of your choice.
  • Step 3: Collect 90 Competitive Spirit by defeating combatants with Machine Guns in the Daily Focus Playlist.
    • All strike playlists are compatible with this quest step. 

When you have obtained the catalyst for Heir Apparent, you must then defeat 700 enemies with the Heir Apparent to complete the catalyst (Strikes or Altar of Sorrow work great). Heir Apparent will become Masterworked (gains a kill tracker and generates orbs on multi-kills) and increases the durability of the Arc Shield. In addition, when the shield is broken by a combatant, some of the magazine is partially reloaded.

Guardian Games: Event Card & Event Challenges

  • Similar to Seasonal Challenges, Event Challenges will be available during the Guardian Games event that all players can work toward and complete to earn new loot including gear, shaders, emblems and unique event items.
    • Access this Event card by visiting Eva Levante in the Tower Courtyard or via the Quests tab!
  • In addition to the event challenges, players can earn a new seal by completing their event card and contribute progress to a new Multi-event Seal. Players can also gild their seal!
  • Players have until the end of the event to complete all Event Challenges

Upgraded Event Card Rewards

  • Although Eververse is typically the primary source of cosmetic loot, Guardian Games  will have a curated selection of cosmetic rewards available through the Event Card itself!
  • These rewards will only be available through the Event Card during their initial release but may be featured in the Eververse Store in the future.
  • Acquiring these extra cosmetic items will require players to purchase the upgraded Event Card, which costs 1000 Silver.
    • Purchasing the upgraded event card immediately grants players an Exotic Reward Bundle!
    • The Upgraded Event Card contains rewards equivalent to around 3000 Silver, though this may vary somewhat depending on future Event Cards

Unsure if you want to purchase the Upgraded Event Card? You can wait to purchase it later in the event to see how many Event Tickets you’ve accumulated!

Event Information

Visit Eva Levante in the Tower to begin the event. 
 
The main objective for the event is to earn medals for your respective class by partaking in various activities across the solar system. Turn in your medals at the Tower Podium to increase your class score. At the end of the event, a winner will be decided and will have bragging rights, as well as a commemorative statue in the Tower until the next Guardian Games the following year! 

The Tower Podium

How Bungie Measures Class Performance has changed this year!
  • Each day, class scores will be measured by the average Medallion score of all players who’ve deposited a Medallion that day, separated by class.
  • In past Guardian Games, they measured class performance based on total Medallion score.
During Guardian Games, the Towers Guardian Games Podium will change daily to reflect the current status of the leading team. Class flags will update throughout the day to show which team is leading, and there will also be a calendar showing the winner for each day throughout the event.
 
Every weekend there will be a special ceremony where you will be able show off a glow from your class item depending on your class’ standing that week.  
  • Third place receives a bronze glow. 
  • Second place receives a silver glow. 
  • First place receives a gold glow. 
  • All-Stars receive a platinum glow. 

There will be a special final weekend closing ceremony held in the Tower toward the end of the event.

Contributions & Outcome

  • Depending on your contributions to Guardian Games All-Stars, you’ll earn glows and the bragging rights that come with them.
  • These are linked to your personal and group achievements, and there are five in total: 
    • One for being the “best in Tower” Guardian. 
    • Another for being a member of the winning class of the day. 
    • A shoulder glow linked to your weekly performance in the Nightfall playlist. 
    • A second shoulder glow for your weekly performance in Supremacy and Gambit. 
    • And a bronze, silver, or gold glow with the shape of a laurel crown (depending on your class place) in the Friday coronation ceremony. 
  • At the end of the event, the class that wins the most days will be crowned winner, and their Class Item will change to gold until the next event, to remind everyone of their victory.
    • Not only that, but for the whole year, members of the winning class can also trigger some fancy fireworks in the Tower if they interact with the Guardian Games All-Stars statue.

Inventory and Materials

Medallions

  • Players can earn medallions from Triumphs, Contender Cards, and activity completions.
  • Medallions are stored in the Medallion Case found in the Quest inventory. Turning completed Medallions into the Tower Podium will increase your team’s score.
    • Medallions are what you are aiming for during this competition. Try to multi-task – get as much as you can get done!
  • You will receive a Medallion Case from Eva to store your hardware until you are ready to visit the podium in the Tower to bank them for your team.
    • Turning in medallions also gives you a chance at receiving an event package depending on the medallion type. 
  • [NEW] Guardians can earn Diamond Medallions by watching Destiny Streamers on Twitch.tv that have enabled the medallion; simply watch the account for up to 2 hours.
    • To redeem, from the Twitch app/web page, select Notifications, select the Diamond Medallion message and claim; ensure your Twitch.tv account is connected to your Bungie.net account.

Class-based Competition

  • Guardian Games features Nightfall, Crucible and Gambit playlists this year!

Nightfalls Playlists

  • Guardian Games Nightfall Strikes will be feature Strike Scoring and Strike Medals that will reward players for pulling off impressive feats. There are two Playlists:
    • Recreation Playlist: Practice scoring throughout the week, which is a combined score of your entire fireteam.
    • Competitive Playlist: Test your mettle and achieve high scores to earn exciting rewards.
  • You can choose to play standard matchmaking or class-based matchmaking, or even no matchmaking!

Crucible Playlist - Supremacy

  • Supremacy is back! Compete in Supremacy and pick up crests from fallen opponents, or deny opponents from scoring.
    • Team points earned in Supremacy will contribute towards your weekly Supremacy quest. 
    • For this event, Guardians of the same class will be teamed up against rival classes! (Ex: Titans vs Hunters or Warlocks)

Gambit Playlist

  • Drifter is finally being included in something again!
  • In the Guardian Games Gambit Playlist, there will be class-based matchmaking.

Focus Activities

  • Every few hours, one of the Guardian Games All-Stars playlists will be the Focus Activity.
  • They will be live for two hours from Monday to Thursday and for three hours from Friday to Sunday, and they are a new great way to get Medallions and other rewards. 
  • Playing a Focus Activity unlocks up to three tiers of reward packages that go from bronze to silver to gold, with better prizes for each tier.
    • The Champions Package will go to the class that dominates the Focus Activity by earning the highest scores.
    • The Champions Package will fill the Medallion Case, not including Diamond Medallions because those are unique to their Contender Cards.
