Usually, this doesn't require you to complete the season-long quest - for Season 18, this is Sails of the Shipstealer - and though this will be playable until Lightfall and Year 6 begins, this ending will expire when Season 19 arrives.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings The Season of the Haunted finale cutscene.Watch on YouTubeReaching Legend rank in any matchmade activities - Crucible, Gambit or Strikes - and redeeming their vendor specific rewards.Redeeming any remaining season pass rewards across all classes.Having some completed Bounties ready, as well as maxing out relevant materials and Glimmer, to give you a head start for the start of next season.
