For the first hour Bungie will be in Crucible Quickplay, for the second they’ll be in Gambit Prime, and for the third and fourth they’ll be in Iron Banner.

Top Donor Rewards

On top of these hilarious donation goals we have some rewards for the top donations for the entire stream. These are as follows.

  • Top Donor: A Prince Uldren statue, a signed copy of the Shadowkeep Collector’s Edition, a signed Collector’s Edition of Destiny 2, a signed Collector’s Edition of Destiny 1, 3A Titan, a Bronze Cayde-6 statue, a MegaBlocks Goliath Tank, and a Cayde-6 game box
  • Second Highest Donor: A signed copy of the Collector’s Edition of Shadowkeep, a signed copy of the Collector’s Edition of Destiny 2, a signed copy of the Collector’s Edition of Destiny 1, Cayde-6 game box, a Cayde-6 statue, and a MegaBlocks Goliath Tank
  • Third Highest Donor: A Signed copy of the Collector’s Edition of Shadowkeep, a signed copy of the Collector’s Edition of Destiny 2, a signed copy of the Collector’s Edition of Destiny 1, and a MegaBlocks Goliath Tank

The Bungie Prize Pool

You enter the Bungie Prize Pool if you donate $25. Most of the items will be signed, though certain items, such as the Ghost Plushy, will be a bit difficult to do. If you donate $25 you have a chance to win any of the following.

  • Destiny Grimoire Anthology, Vol 1 (10 to win)
  • Cayde-6 Game Box (5 to win)
  • MegaBlock Goliath Tank (5 to win)
  • Plushy Ghost (5 to win)
  • Vinyl Ghost (5 to win)
  • Cayde-6 Bronze Statue (4 to win)
  • 3A Titan Statue (2 to win)

Collector’s Editions to Win

Finally, there are also some collector’s editions to win as part of pure donations. These are all up for grabs if you donate $100.

  • Signed Collector’s Edition of Shadowkeep (20 to win)
  • Signed Collector’s Edition of Destiny 2 (20 to win)
  • Signed Collector’s Edition of Destiny 1 (10 to win)

This event is going to be incredible, and it always raises so much money for charity. It’s important to remember that the cause is what we’re supporting here, and even though Bungie is setting aside a mere 4 hours for the event, they’re going to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars to help children who need it. I hope you all tune in later today to check out the stream at the very least, if not throw some money in for the chance to win something cool.

I'm an avid Destiny 2 fan and player. I fell in love with Destiny 1 during the early alpha and have been hooked by the universe ever since. I really enjoy playing with other Guardians, speculating about the lore, and writing about as much of the Destiny universe as I can.
