Where You Can Become a God Slayer

Destiny 2 is always trying to keep players engaged with yet another event that sounds epic just saying. This time, it's the Pantheon, the new arena where you can try to be something more than a mere mortal facing bosses that, let's be honest, have probably beaten you more times than you can count.

The Pantheon: Boss Killing Elevated to an Art In the Pantheon, you start by facing four bosses — because, apparently, starting with just one is for the weak. Each week the number of opponents increases until by the fourth week you are so tired you can barely lift your grip. Oh, and the rewards? Adept weapons and exotic equipment that you'll probably use to show off in Tower and forget about in the next update.

The Pantheon Ring: Why You Need More Bling If slaughtering gods isn't enough to satisfy your ego, how about a silver ring to show off? That's right, complete the challenges and earn the right to buy (no, not free) a ring that shows how good you are at spending your time. It's a special offer, so hurry, it's for a limited time!

Family Size Sword for the Winning Captain During the premiere, watch as two teams of streamers try to prove who is least likely to have a social life outside of gaming. The captain of the winning team takes home a giant sword that, honestly, is more likely to end up as a decorative item than a useful weapon during a zombie apocalypse.

Cosplay at the Cosmodrome: Dressing to Impress or Depression And for those who prefer the art of dressing up as their favorite characters rather than trying to kill virtual gods, the Cosplay at the Cosmodrome is back. It's your chance to see costumed adults taking the task of looking like aliens and space warriors very seriously. Prizes for everyone? Probably not, but at least you can take some cool photos for your Instagram.

Deicide and Cosplay, All in One Game So whether you're looking for non-stop action or just an excuse to wear that armor you made in your mom's basement, Destiny 2 has something for you. Get ready to test your patience with gods or your skill with hot glue. Good luck, Guardians, you're going to need it!
