Destiny 2 codes (September 2025) for free emblems & shaders

Redeemable codes in Destiny 2 are a neat bonus any player can use to earn various cosmetics, including exclusive emblems and shaders that can’t be earned elsewhere. The real bonus is that they’re all free, so there’s no reason not to add them to your collection.

Unlike meta PvE weapons and the best PvP weapons, there are no gameplay benefits for these cosmetics, and are only useful for showing off your style. But fashion has always been a valuable part of Destiny’s culture, and emblems and shaders are no exception.

To make sure you’re not missing out on free rewards, here are all the latest codes to claim right now.

All active emblem codes in Destiny 2

There are currently 56 emblem codes that are currently available to redeem in D2, all of which we’ve checked and can confirm to be active as of September 1, 2025:

Additional emblems can also occasionally be earned outside of promo codes via alternative means:

• Everyone Can Play – Buy the Disability Awareness pin from the Bungie store.

Players can also link their Bungie account to the Epic Games Store and earn a pair of new emblems inspired by Fortnite and Fall Guys. You can link your accounts on Bungie.net.

Shader codes

Remember, you can also earn free shaders by purchasing them from Ada-1 or the Bright Dust store, with both vendors refreshing their stocks after the weekly reset.

Transmat effects & emote codes

On top of shaders and emblems, there are currently a couple of additional codes available in D2 that take the form of emotes and transmat effects. Right now, these are:

• R9J-79M-J6C – End of the Rainbow Transmat Effect
• TK7-D3P-FDF – Rainbow Connection Emote

How to redeem promo codes in Destiny 2

Promo codes can’t be redeemed in D2 directly from the game. Instead, you’ll have to head to the Code Redemption section of Bungie.net.

• Once you’re there, log into your account and paste the codes in to redeem the goodies when you next log in.
• If any of the above codes do not work, you may have already redeemed them. Just check the “Redemption History” section to figure out whether you’ve claimed them in the past. 

To make sure you are up to date on what’s happening, be sure to check out the current Dungeon & Raid rotation and Exotic Mission rotation. Alternatively, these guides on the best Hunter builds, Titan builds, and Warlock builds will make sure you are using the strongest loadout possible.
