Destiny 2 backflips on new Iron Banner mode after overwhelmingly negative player feedback
The first week of Destiny 2’s Iron Banner event hasn’t gone quite to plan in Season of the Wish, with the premiere of a new game mode—Tribute—met with a frosty reception from the playerbase. As a result, only a day after launch, Bungie is already pulling the mode out.
“Based on early player responses, we are replacing Iron Banner Tribute with Iron Banner Control for the rest of the week,” the Destiny 2 Team wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter) on Dec. 6. “Iron Banner is intended to be a celebration of PvP and we want to make sure everyone is having a positive experience when playing it. Look for an improved Iron Banner Tribute experience when we bring it back in the future.”
