Play The Destiny Beta On Saturday, Get An Emblem For The Full Game
Activision and Bungie are celebrating the beta by giving players a way to show off their participation. In order to earn your cosmetic swag, all you need to do is play later in the day on Saturday, July 26.
All you need to do is play starting at 2 p.m. Pacific/5 p.m. Eastern in order to earn the emblem. We haven’t seen what it looks like yet, but we can safely expect that there will be a number of them affixed to profiles come September 9.
Destiny will be out for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 3. The beta will continue through July 27.

Our Take
These little tokens are nice reminders later on that you were there when it all started. Unlike a gun or armor piece that loses its value the more you play, a cosmetic emblem can always be enabled without penalty, even during the end-game.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
