Destiny 2's The Dawning Christmas event has been revealed in full by Bungie.

The Destiny 2 seasonal event has been given a December 19 release date by Bungie.

The Dawning introduces snowball fights, the Mayhem in the Cold Crucible event, Milestones of Winter and the ability to send and receive gifts.

"The Traveler is awake. For Humanity, a new Golden Age has begun," reads a Bungie blog post. "This year's Dawning is unlike any other - it's not just the renewal that a new year brings, but the dawn of something greater.

"Now more than ever, we must gather together in the Tower, at the Farm, and all across the system to give thanks. Our Light has returned - and it illuminates everything around us."

Fans can also unlock new rewards, or purchase Dawning gear from an in-game vendor.

Social spaces will also get a festive makeover, similar to Headquarters in Call of Duty WW2 Winter Siege.

You can check out The Dawning Christmas event in the gallery below.

Here's what Bungie has to say about The Dawning event on PS4, Xbox One and PC...

Happy Dawning to All

It may be cold outside, but there's a warmth in the air. As the year comes to an end, the Tower and Farm are decorated with festive cheer. It's a time to celebrate your Light.

Snowball Fights

Guardians aren't just arming themselves with weapons. There are snowball piles everywhere you look. In the Tower and at the Farm, you can tag your friends for bragging rights. In Strikes, you can blast an enemy with a snowball to stun them and deal big damage. Stay frosty out there.

Mayhem in the Cold

Keep your blood warm and your heart pumping in the Crucible. Mayhem is back, so your abilities recharge faster. Point values are cranked up enough to melt the ice. It's anarchy—and it's awesome.

Milestones of Winter

Engage in Crucible Mayhem or become legend in Strikes and you'll be rewarded. Every week, complete a milestone for a Dawning engram. Get in the giving mood with new consumables that give rewards to everyone you're playing with. If there’s a specific Dawning item that you have your heart set on, Tess will refresh her inventory each week, enabling you to use your Bright Dust reserves for your holiday shopping. On one week or another during the three-week event, you’ll find every Dawning-themed exotic (ship, ghost, sparrow, emote) and every Dawning-themed legendary armor piece on her shelves.

Gifting and Receiving

Pick up a Dawning Gift Schematic from the Bazaar. Venture to other worlds and craft a unique gift for the vendors and agents you find in the Tower and beyond. Then, give the lucky recipient their gift and receive a gift in return. You can participate in the season of giving every day of the event.
