This week at Bungie we shared the first of three previews of the April Update.
"New Things to Do" was the theme. We toured the Reef, inspected Variks' inventory, briefed you on new enemies, and took a deep dive into the Challenge of Elders to settle some scores. Our Fireteam was victorious, and earned some sweet rewards.
Here's an archive of the show, in case you missed it or just want to relive the events.

It's Showtime!
A man who yawns in the face of certain death in the Prison of Elders has a soul brave enough to sort through the community-created content that we find right here on our site. This is his awards ceremony.
Cozmo: Grab your popcorn, ridiculously large soda, and sit down because we got some badass movies for you to watch. Where did we get them? They were all found on the Creations page. If you want to submit yours send them there. The creators of the films seen here will be awarded a special Emblem to show off to their friends. Now go watch the movies, and watch them good!
