Destiny 2's holiday event, The Dawning, is now live on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, and it adds a whole bunch of new stuff for you to check out. From decorations, to snowballs, to armor, to the absurd Mayhem mode in Crucible, there's a lot to do and earn in The Dawning. We've gathered up images of all the items that the event adds and put them in this gallery for quick reference. You'll immediately notice that The Dawning is taking place when you jump into Destiny 2. Winter has come to the Farm and the Tower, where decorations abound and snow covers the ground. At these social spaces, you can take a break by throwing snowballs at your friends. The snow has fallen throughout the rest of the game, too, as you'll notice when you run Strikes. There, the snowballs actually have a use: you can throw them at enemies to stun them and deal damage. In The Crucible, meanwhile, Mayhem is back. The crazy, chaotic game mode gives you a ridiculously fast cooldown timer on your Super attack, and it tasks you with causing as much destruction to the other team as you can. Completing Mayhem matches and Strikes aren't just for fun, either: new Milestones have been added that award a Dawning engram per week. These engrams contain a bunch of new gear, which we've showcased in this gallery. Finally, The Dawning adds a gifting and receiving function to Destiny 2. Unfortunately, you can't give gifts to other players--but you can give them to vendors and receive cool items in return. The Dawning will run for the next few weeks; it's currently scheduled to end on January 9. In other Destiny 2 news, Bungie has recently detailed upcoming changes to both the Three of Coins buff and the Masterworks weapon system.

The 26 Most Iconic Sci-Fi Spaceships
From movies, to TV, to video games, there are countless sci-fi spacecrafts of varying size and power. These are the most iconic. Note: While the Death Star is mobile, after much debate it's been decided that particular vessel is classified as a space station, thus it is not included on this list.
Discovery One
As seen in: 2001: A Space Odyssey This nuclear-powered ship is controlled by artificial intelligence and carries passengers from Earth to Jupiter. While it may not be loaded with firepower, Discovery One is one of the most iconic spaceships ever, powered by a nuclear reactor. Image: Warner Bros.
Nostromo
As seen in: Alien Another unforgettable spaceship, Alien's Nostromo is a starfreighter that serves as home-away-from-home for Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver). Image: 20th Century Fox
Eagle transporter
As seen in: Space: 1999 The signature passenger ship model from Space: 1999 is said to reach speeds of up to 23,000 miles per second. Being able to rocket around the galaxy that fast earns it a place in the most powerful spaceships. Image: 20th Century Fox
Flying saucers from Mars Attacks!
As seen in: Mars Attacks! While they may not be the most modern spacecrafts--instead looking exactly like what you'd expect from a Tim Burton movie about aliens--the flying saucers from Mars Attacks! lay waste to plenty of humans after descending to Earth. Image: Warner Bros.
D79-TC Pelican
As seen in: Halo Master Chief's preferred mode of transportation--a gunship/dropship--holds 15-20 personnel and a pair of GAU/53 70mm MBHRC autocannons to blase enemies out of the sky. Image: 343 Industries
Serenity
As seen in: Firefly It may not come equipped with offensive weaponry, but that's part of the Serenity's charm. This ship has survived vicious battles and scary situations thanks to the clever maneuvering of its grade-A team of misfits. Image: FOX
Axiom
As seen in: Wall-E The Axiom is no fighter, that much is clear. However, a ship that size that can serve as a full-functioning city to the remainder of the people of Earth is impressively powerful--especially when you consider how the ship has to do literally everything for those onboard. Image: Pixar
Alien mothership
As seen in: Close Encounters of the Third Kind They came in peace, but the sheer size of the alien mothership in Close Encounters of the Third Kind cannot be dismissed. This massive vessel is a perfect example of otherworldly design and--while it's not dangerous--its speaker system can be intimidating. Image: Columbia Pictures
Eagle 5
As seen in: Spaceballs Everything in Spaceballs is a joke, the Eagle 5 included. That said, it's ability to achieve "hyperactive" mode makes it one of the fastest ships in the universe--something you cannot dismiss. Image: 20th Century Fox
Heart of Gold
As seen in: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy The infinite improbability drive makes the Heart of Gold the fastest ship in the universe, which is a power many covet. However, as shown in the 2005 movie adaptation, it's also a ship that's easily stolen. With all that power, you'd think they'd put an alarm on it. Image: Buena Vista Pictures
Normandy SR-1
As seen in: Mass Effect With stealth capabilities and the ability to travel faster than the speed of light, the Normandy is a spaceship that deserves to be taken seriously. It doesn't hurt that it's piloted by a guy named Joker. Image: BioWare
TIE fighter
As seen in: Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope While it's a small spacecraft at only nine meters long, with the ability to carry one passenger, the TIE fighter is a deadly ship. Loaded with laser cannons and proton torpedoes, it's destroyed hundreds, if not thousands, of enemy aircraft. Image: Lucasfilm
X-wing fighter
As seen in: Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope A signature vessel in the Star Wars universe, the X-wing is a quick and powerful fighter, boasting laser cannons and photon torpedoes. Still, while it was ultimately responsible for the destruction of the Death Star, it's primary use is in one-on-one combat with the opposition's TIE fighters. It's powerful for its size but not the biggest and baddest in the universe. Image: Lucasfilm
The Milano
As seen in: Guardians of the Galaxy There aren't many specs available for this ship, named after Alyssa Milano. But after seeing the battles it's been through in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, we know this spaceship is not to be taken lightly. Image: Marvel Studios
Klingon bird-of-prey
As seen in: Star Trek III: The Search for Spock The bird-of-prey is a staple of the Star Trek franchise. With photon torpedoes, a warp drive and a tractor beam, it's exactly the kind of ship you'd want if you were looking for trouble. Image: Paramount
Romulan warbird
As seen in: Star Trek: The Next Generation Its power is similar to that of the Klingon bird-of-prey. However, where the warbird gets the better of its fellow Star Trek vessel is its warp drive capable of Warp 9-plus speeds. Image: Fox
Millennium Falcon
As seen in: Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope With illegally-modified blasters, plenty of shields to keep it safe, and more speed than it needs, the Millennium Falcon one of the most iconic ships ever and worth every bit of its hype. Image: Lucasfilm
NSEA Protector (NTE-3120)
Galaxy Quest may be a satire of Star Trek culture, but the 1999 movie's featured starship is a serious machine with hundreds of crew members and a quantum flux drive capable of speeds of up to Mach 15. Image: Warner Bros.
The TARDIS
As seen in: Doctor Who The TARDIS--Time and Relative Dimension in Space--isn't made for fighting and destruction. There are no lasers or missiles on this ship. That said, it's practically impenetrable and can travel anywhere in space and time, giving it powers far beyond those of most other sci-fi ships. Image: BBC
UNSC Infinity
As seen in: Halo 4 This massive carrier holds over 17,000 troops and contains 1,100 missile pods, making it perhaps the most powerful ship in the Halo franchise. Image: 343 Industries
Borg Cube
As seen in: Star Trek: The Next Generation It may not be aerodynamic, but the Borg Cube is a formidable foe in space. It's loaded with an array of weaponry and is controlled by a merciless group that has no problem ending lives. Every encounter with the vessel has ended with multiple casualties, making the Borg Cube both a powerful enemy and a terrifying one. Image: Fox
USS Enterprise (NCC-1701), original timeline
As seen in: Star Trek It may not be the quickest spaceship around, but with its stock of photon torpedoes, shields to keep it safe, and massive size, the USS Enterprise is a ship to be reckoned with. Image: CBS
USS Discovery
As seen in: Star Trek: Discovery The Discovery has all of the hallmarks of the USS Enterprise, complete with the standard Federation weaponry. However, the Discovery also contains the experimental spore drive that can instantly jump the ship to anywhere in the universe. Image: CBS
Giant saucers
As see in: Independence Day The huge saucers in Independence Day didn't do much, aside from deliver a single laser blast. Of course, that long blast is strong enough to level an entire city. Image: 20th Century Fox
Galactica (BS-75)
As seen in: Battlestar Galactica Like the Normandy, the Galactica can travel faster than the speed of light. Unlike the Normandy, though, this ship is loaded with weaponry and a 5,000 member crew. Image: Universal
Imperial-class Star Destroyer
As seen in: Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope It's not going to win a race against the Millennium Falcon anytime soon, but it could certainly blast it to pieces. With a collection of turbolasers and a crew of nearly 40,000, the Star Destroyer is the baddest ship in any galaxy -- and one you don't want to face off against. Image: Lucasfilm

Finding Your Way To The Champions
After completing the first Champions' Ballad DLC challenge in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, four new trials open up in different regions of Hyrule that are each associated with one of the four Champions. By approaching each trial's respective pedestal, you'll trigger a quest where you observe three obelisks that point the way to special challenges scattered across the world that unlock the shrines. Completing an individual challenge will unlock a single new shrine. After completing the three shrines for a given pedestal, you end up in a boss battle with one of Ganon's four blights, located at the appropriate divine beast. After you go through this process for all four champions, then you unlock a new divine beast dungeon and a new boss fight after the fact. The Champions' Ballad DLC is the second and final part of Breath of the Wild's paid DLC collectively referred to as the Expansion Pass. If you need even more Zelda guides, check out our recipe and cooking manual, our beginner's guide, or just our general list of everything you might want help figuring out. And of course you shouldn't miss our official review of Breath of the Wild.
Mipha's Song: Map Location Of "Find What The Light's Path Shows"
How To Complete The Challenge
This shrine is located between Ankel Island and Knuckel Island. Set up shop at the nearby cliffside where Mzu is and wait until morning; you'll spot a faint glowing blue portal in-between the islands. Glide down to it to unearth Kee Dafunia shrine.
Mipha's Song: Map Location Of "Conquer The Ancient Foes"
How To Complete The Challenge
Make your way to Toto Lake, and you'll spot some Guardian Skywatchers flying over Upland Zorana. Defeat all the guardians in the area and Sato Koda shrine will appear.
Mipha's Song: Map Location Of "Chase The Rings Of The Waterfall"
How To Complete The Challenge
From Ne'ez Yohma Shrine at Zora's Domain, Head to Mikau Lake to find a glowing blue portal. Equip your Zora Tunic and walk through the portal to trigger a challenge where you must chase goal rings up three waterfalls. If you succeed in passing through each one, Mah Eliya shrine will appear.
Daruk's Song: Map Location Of "Stop A Titan Of Molten Stone"
How To Complete The Challenge
Kami Omuna shrine can be found at the northern shore Lake Darman, northwest from the Death Caldera. A large Igneo Talus will rise from the magma to do battle; destroy it to unearth Kami Omuna shrine.
Daruk's Song: Map Location Of "Follow The Rings Of Light Alone"
How To Complete The Challenge
Warp to the Divine Beast Vah Rudania and head East along the volcano rim until you spot another blue ring challenge. This time you have to glide through a series of rings up and around the peak of Death Mountain. Naturally, complete the challenge and the Sharo Lun shrine will emerge.
Daruk's Song: Map Location Of "Survive Lava's Fiery Fate"
How To Complete The Challenge
Proceed to Darb Bond, which is located south of Death Mountain and southeast of Gorko Lake. Once there, you'll spot a blue ring right above the lava. To fall through the ring, grab the two metal boxes or any large rocks found along the shore of Darb Pond. Use them as stepping-stones to get to the blue ring. The Runi Honika shrine will appear upon successful completion of this challenge.
Revali's Song: Map Location Of "Shoot The Flame Dragon's Horn"
How To Complete The Challenge
Warp to Hebra tower and go to Tanagar Canyon, which is located south of Tabantha Hills. Drop down onto the large ledge on the north face and wait for flame dragon Dinraal to appear (at around 1 AM; use a campfire). Once he spawns, shoot an arrow at his glowing horns and the Shira Gomar shrine should emerge on the south side of the canyon ridge.
Revali's Song: Map Location Of "Race Down A Peak Rings Adorn"
How To Complete The Challenge
Head to the west face of Hebra Peak, just down below the mountain's summit. You should spot another set of blue rings. To complete this challenge, you'll need to shield board down the mountain through all the rings. Shred the gnar successfully and the Kiah Toza shrine will emerge.
Revali's Song: Map Location Of "Shoot Four Targets To Win"
How To Complete The Challenge
Head to the Flight Range where you first met Teba (North of the Sha Warvo shrine). You'll notice the targets there now sport a blue glow. Hitting one while falling isn't enough; rather, float around until you have four targets in sight and shoot them all in one go before you come out of focus. Succeed and the Noe Rajee shrine will reveal itself at the bottom of the Flight Range pit.
Urbosa's Song: Map Location Of "Fight The Brute Of Sand"
How To Complete The Challenge
To unlock the Keive Tala Shrine, you must track down and defeat the Molduking, a more powerful version of the Molduga that can kill you in a single hit. The creature can be found wandering the East Barrens. Defeat it and the shrine will emerge from the sands.
Urbosa's Song: Map Location Of "Chase The Rings Upon The Land"
How To Complete The Challenge
Between the West Barrens and Gerudo Town, you'll find another blue ring challenge. However, you can't complete this challenge by yourself; grab a Sand Seal and blast through all the blue rings to reveal the Takama Shiri shrine.
Urbosa's Song: Map Location Of "Throw The Orb Underground"
How To Complete The Challenge
This last shrine requires you to head back to the Yiga hideout. Go to the giant hole in the back where you fought Master Kohga, and at the back entrance, you'll find treasure hunters that inform you that there's an orb in the hideout's second floor storage room (the one filled with bananas). Sneak into the hideout to grab the orb and bring it out to the back entrance. Toss it into the giant hole and the Kihiro Moh shrine should appear briefly after.
