Destiny 2’s brilliant Gambit mode is going free again

September 21 – 23

Recommended Videos

If you missed your chance to try Destiny 2‘s wonderful mishmash of PvP and PvE because you were hanging in Seattle for PAX or were otherwise indisposed, good news: Gambit is getting another trial.

All Destiny 2 players will have access to Gambit from Friday, September 21 at 10:00am Pacific through Sunday, September 23 at 10:00am Pacific. You don’t need to own the Forsaken expansion.

I feel like some people still aren’t sure what Gambit’s about, so, in short: two teams compete to kill enemies, bank the items they drop, summon new enemies for the opposing team to deal with, and race to spawn and finally kill a boss. Best of all, you can invade each other’s area to be a total pest.

Bungie is smart to offer another Gambit taster. It’s the most into Destiny 2 I’ve been in a long time. For tips to get you prepped for this weekend’s trial, here’s some light reading material from Chris.
