Destiny Rising - Closed Beta Test Carry Over Guide
Characters, Silver, and story progress will not be part of the Closed Beta Test carry over in Destiny: Rising. See a guide to Closed Beta Test Carry Over here and learn how to claim your Silver refund and other rewards upon release.

Closed Beta Test Carry Over Bonuses

Silver Refund

Items purchased using Silver will be refunded upon release. As with all players starting on day 1, Closed Beta Test players will also begin fresh, so none of the purchased items will be available in their inventory. Instead, all Silver spent will be refunded.

Silver Rebate Rate

< 18,000 Silver 150% Rebate Rate
Example: 18,000 × 150% = 27,000 Silver
> 18,000 Silver 120% Rebate Rate
Example: 2,000 × 120% = 2,400 Silver

Refunds will include a rebate rate upon release. Players who spent over 18,000 Silver will receive an additional 150%, while those who spent less will receive 120%.

This applies only to paid Silver purchases. Silver obtained from events or rewards will not be refunded.

In addition, first purchase bonuses will refresh upon release. This means that even if you purchased Silver during the Closed Beta Test, you’ll still be eligible for the bonus at launch.

Story Progress and Character Will Not Carry Over

Story

Story progress and characters used in the Closed Beta Test will not be part of the carry over bonuses. Only the Silver rebate rate will be rewarded to players upon release.

How to Claim Carry Over Bonuses

  1. Bind Account
  2. Create a Character
  3. Claim Rewards After

Bind Account

To start, bind the account you used during the Closed Beta Test with the account you’ll be using at launch. Closed Beta players who used Facebook, X, or Google Play will receive all refunds and rewards upon release.

However, Closed Beta players who used Guest accounts will need to link their accounts to one of the mentioned platforms to qualify for the refund and rewards. This can be done through the Account Management menu under Settings.

All Pre-Registration Rewards

Cross-Platform Supported

Refunds and rewards can be claimed regardless of platform. For example, if you used iOS during the Closed Beta Test and Android on release, you will still be eligible for the rewards as long as you’re using the same account.

Available Platforms and Consoles Guide

Create a Character

After binding your account and logging into the game, proceed to character creation. Refunds and rewards will only be available once this step is completed.

Claim Rewards After

Once you’ve finished character creation, continue playing the game and you should be able to claim your rewards and Silver refunds shortly.

Only Available Within the 90-Day Claim Window

Release Date August 28, 2025
90 Days from Release November 26, 2025

Keep in mind that Closed Beta Test rewards can only be claimed within 90 days from release. Players who log in beyond this window will no longer be able to receive the rewards.
