Moments of Triumph

Template:Infobox event

Moments of Triumph is an annual event in the Destiny franchise that commemorates players' achievements throughout the previous year. The event features a collection of challenges that celebrate major accomplishments and offers exclusive rewards for dedicated players.

Overview

Moments of Triumph serves as Bungie's way of celebrating all the accomplishments players achieve in-game over the course of a year. The event typically runs for several months, giving players ample time to complete challenges and earn exclusive rewards that commemorate their dedication to the game.

History

Destiny

The first Moments of Triumph event launched in Destiny on July 7, 2015. The original game featured three Moments of Triumph events total, with the final one, Age of Triumph, serving as a sendoff to Destiny as Bungie shifted focus to Destiny 2.

The Destiny Year 2 Moments of Triumph introduced the in-game Record Book, which displayed Triumphs players could complete and rewards they could attain.

Destiny 2

Moments of Triumph continued as an annual tradition in Destiny 2, though Record Books did not return. Initially, optional Triumphs and Triumph score could be accessed at Eva Levante, the event vendor. With the launch of Forsaken, Bungie introduced full Triumph support, allowing players to access challenges and build a lifetime Triumph score viewable in-game at any time.
