The devs have outlined their plans for #TeamMechs vs #TeamMonsters in a new blog post. The vote is an opportunity for players to have their say on a featured armour ornament set which will go on sale in the Eververse cosmetic store later in the year during the Halloween-themed Festival of the Lost. Once the event is live, you’ll be able to purchase it with Bright Dust or the premium Silver currency.

The aptly-described “mobile suits” (in Bungie’s own words) of Team Mech, on the other hand, clearly draw
