Check out the spooky new items available for HalloweenComing not long after Destiny 2`s launch, last October didn`t see the franchise`s annual Halloween event, Festival of the Lost, take place. That changes for 2018, and Bungie is doing more than ever, adding a brand-new activity type, among other things. But of course the highlight for many players is the new gear and rewards you can get your hands on, all of which you can check out above.A fixture of Festival of the Lost in the original Destiny was the variety of masks you can obtain and wear, and this year is no different. Among those we`ve already gotten a look at are Petra, Shaxx, and the Traveler, though the best of the bunch might be Cayde`s chicken friend. Masks can be obtained by purchasing them with Fragmented Souls. This is a new type of currency earned by completing Festival of the Lost daily bounties offered by Amanda Holliday.We don`t yet know if there will be other ways of getting your hands on masks. However, we do know there is a special Bright Engram--the Ephemeral Engram--that you`ll receive in addition to the usual Steadfast Engram every time you fill the XP bar (assuming you`ve reached the level cap). These Engrams will contain a variety of new items, some of which will also be sold for Bright Dust at Eververse during the event.Many of these items are also pictured above--there are Sparrows, ships, Ghosts (including one that looks like a cat), Ghost Projections, emotes, and more. In terms of usable gear, we know there`s a new auto rifle called Horror Story that you`ll be able to purchase with the aforementioned Fragmented Souls.Alongside all of these new items to acquire, there are new activities to take part in. First and foremost is the Haunted Forest, where you`ll take on increasingly difficult enemies over the course of a 15-minute run in a modified Infinite Forest. This can be played solo or with a Fireteam of three (with matchmaking available if your friends are too scared to dive in). ...
