Destiny 2's annual Guardian Games event has returned once again for 2025, coinciding with the launch of Heresy Act 2. It brings with it some incredibly significant changes to the event's format. While the basic idea of the event remains intact. Each Guardian class competes for points and the class with the most points gets a dedicated statue in the Tower area for the next year--the biggest change is the addition of a brand new mode to play. Here's what's new and what players can earn along the way, including the new weapon, various Exotics you can earn, new armor ornaments, a boss-rush mode called Rushdown, and much more.Table of Contents [hide]How to earn medallions in Guardian Games 2025How to earn medallions in Guardian Games 2025Much like previous years in Guardian Games, the event starts by speaking to Eva Levante in the Tower hub and getting the Contender Card to earn medallions.
