Destiny 2: Echoes campaign walkthrough

As a seasoned Guardian with years of experience under my belt, I’ve faced countless challenges and emerged victorious each time. But the new Episode: Echoes in Destiny 2 has piqued my interest with its intriguing storyline and unique tasks.


Destiny 2: Echoes is the initial installment of the new Episode series for this franchise. Each Episode, including Echoes and those coming next, follows a three-act structure. About every few weeks, a new act starts. This guide will walk you through all the steps for each act in A Rising Chorus, the main campaign within Echoes.
