Bungie implemented seasonal challenges in Destiny 2 with the Beyond Light expansion, where instead of going for a bounty spree, players can go for actual objectives. Depending on the difficulty of each challenge, they grant XP, Bright Dust, weapons, and sometimes seasonal currency.

Therefore, seasonal challenges have become one of the primary sources of XP to earn power via artifact bonuses. Bungie releases a set of objectives in the first ten weeks of any season, giving everyone enough time to earn power bonuses.

The following article lists the upcoming seasonal challenges with the weekly reset on May 31.


All ten upcoming seasonal challenges in the second week of Destiny 2 Season of the Haunted (May 31)

1) Sorrow Bound II
