— Arena description

Arena is a game mode introduced in the House of Wolves expansion with the Prison of Elders.[1] It's also featured in Destiny 2 with The Reckoning, the Menagerie, the Vex Offensive, The Sundial and Battlegrounds.

Overview

Arena is a special cooperative game mode that pits players against a series of trials.[2] It is a cross between Raids and Strikes.

Prison of Elders

The Prison of Elders is an Arena located in The Reef and features a randomized base mode with matchmaking available, as well as several higher-level challenge modes that rotate each week, offering more rewards. It applies a different Modifier each round, and a different set of Modifiers per week, and may contain critical objectives that the three-player team must complete, or else the team wipes.[3]

In the April Update, this was expanded with the Challenge of the Elders with an Elder's Sigil required to gain access with scoring system implemented; points are deducted after five minutes have passed.[4]

The Reckoning

The Reckoning is an Arena Activity on the Haul in Destiny 2.
