Bungie confirmed the extension of its Twitch Gaming partnership on its official website this past week. Twitch Prime Gaming subscribers will be able to claim 12 months of Destiny 2 rewards starting now. Each month another reward pack will be made available to claim. If subscribers don’t claim the rewards, then at the end of each month they’ll lose the opportunity. These limited-time rewards ensure Destiny 2 players stay subscribed to Prime Gaming for the full year.

Rewards from Twitch Gaming aren’t anything to ignore, either. They’re largely Exotic cosmetics, things that definitely have value compared to other potential loot. There’s even an opportunity to earn Exotic weapons, though some may decry that as a pay-to-win situation. They aren’t exclusive Exotics, by any means, so players hopefully won’t be worried too much about Twitch Gaming subscribers getting an advantage. In fact, none of the rewards come from the current Destiny 2 Season, they’re all throwback rewards.
The first month of the new Destiny 2 Prime Gaming rewards has already gone live, offering a selection of loot that interested parties can use as a baseline. In November’s loot drop, Prime Gaming subscribers received an Unchained Exotic Emote, a Regal Howl Exotic Sparrow, a Transpose JT-24-X Exotic Ship, and an Arch Shell Legendary Ghost. Bungie describes it as a Seasonally-themed bundle of rewards to coincide with the start of the Season of the Hunt. This first reward will be available through December 23.
In order to redeem the rewards, players need only go to the Destiny 2 Prime Gaming website, claim the reward after connecting Twitch to their Destiny 2 account, and then go speak to Amanda Holliday in the Tower’s hangar. Amanda will hold onto all of the player’s claimed rewards in her inventory until the player chooses to redeem them.
Destiny 2 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
