Currently, the April Iron Banner is still running in Destiny 2. The 6v6 matches are well received. Bungie has already announced that the scheduled rotation in the Crucible will change again. The 6v6 Iron Banner will be playable once more before the release of the Warmind expansion. Many fans are looking forward to it.
In the run-up to the second expansion, Warmind, which will be released on May 8, 2018, many Guardians are still enjoying the ongoing Iron Banner event in Destiny 2. The April Iron Banner brought the popular 6v6 format back to the Crucible. This mode is already known to many Guardians from Destiny 1 and was part of the standard in PvP back then.

And according to fans’ reactions, this mode is also mostly well received in Destiny 2. Many have ventured back into the Crucible after a long time and even discovered the fun of PvP – some for the very first time in Destiny 2.

The weekly Crucible playlist will now rotate as follows:
