So we\u2019re here to help explain it and give you the answers you need to find the solution \u2014 and we\u2019ll help you get some great Heresy<em> <\/em>weapons along the way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">In this <em>Destiny 2 <\/em>guide, we\u2019ll walk you through how to start the chess puzzle, explain how the puzzle works, and show you <strong>how to solve the chess puzzle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\" id=\"how-to-reach-the-chess-board-in-destiny-2\"><strong>How to reach the chess board in Destiny 2<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/how-to-solve-the-chess-puzzle-in-destiny-2-1.png\" alt=\"A Guardian looks at a chess board in Destiny 2\" title=\"A Guardian looks at a chess board in Destiny 2\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"Image: Bungie via Polygon\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">To reach the chess puzzle in <em>Destiny 2<\/em>, you need to load into Eris\u2019 apartment in The Last City. Use the <strong>Eris\u2019 Flat<\/strong> waypoint to drop in and then use the Hive portal to teleport into Eris\u2019 Throne World.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Once inside, carefully drop off the side of the platform, looking for a doorway that leads to a chamber under where Eris is standing. You\u2019ll find a chess board sitting on the table. When you approach, it\u2019ll ask: \u201c<strong>Pick up the King?<\/strong>\u201d Interact with the board and you\u2019ll be teleported onto it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">When you land on the chess board, you\u2019ll unlock the ability to fly in at any time via The Last City menu, using the Unknown Antechamber waypoint either at Middlegame (before you\u2019ve completed the puzzle) or Endgame (where you can collect information to help the community after the puzzle).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div><iframe title=\"All 60 Chess Piece Locations - Complete Guide (The Opening Triumph) [Destiny 2]\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fCq81dE_w6A?rel=0&#038;start=938\" allowfullscreen allow=\"accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">HoHowever, to actually solve the puzzle, you\u2019ll first need to find <strong>all 60 chess pieces<\/strong> hidden around the Sol system. For the exact locations, we recommend you check out<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=fCq81dE_w6A&amp;t=938s&amp;ab_channel=Esoterickk\"> Esoterickk<\/a>\u2019s video above, which will show you exactly where to find all 60 chess pieces. If you want to have some fun hunting yourself first, keep an eye on your radar as you do the following:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Visit Eris\u2019 apartment<\/li>\n<li>Visit The Tower<\/li>\n<li>Visit the EDZ<\/li>\n<li>Visit Europa<\/li>\n<li>Explore the first four areas of The Nether<\/li>\n<li>Solve \u201csecrets\u201d in The Nether<\/li>\n<li>Explore the Court of Blades<\/li>\n<li>Experiment with the Path of Ambition and Path of Resolve<\/li>\n<li>Speak to The Drifter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">You can track your progress via \u201c<strong>The Opening<\/strong>\u201d Triumph, and the Triumphs that come after it (\u201cDrifter\u2019s Pieces,\u201d \u201cNether Secrets,\u201d and so on).<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Once you\u2019ve found all the pieces \u2014 or you\u2019re able to party up with a friend who\u2019s found them already \u2014 return to the chess board to begin the puzzle.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\" id=\"how-the-chess-puzzle-works-in-destiny-2\">How the chess puzzle works in Destiny 2<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/how-to-solve-the-chess-puzzle-in-destiny-2-2.png\" alt=\"A Guardian places a pawn onto a chess board in Destiny 2\" title=\"A Guardian places a pawn onto a chess board in Destiny 2\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"Image: Bungie via Polygon\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">In the Unknown Antechamber, you\u2019ll see a massive chess board with pieces on it, as well as symbols on the white side of the board denoting the various pieces you\u2019ve collected, including the \u201cDeletion\u201d and \u201cTake\u201d symbols on either side (more on those last two later).<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The idea here is that you need to create a board where, on the next turn, you (white) will win the chess game by achieving checkmate on the enemy (black) without putting your own king into checkmate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">To achieve checkmate, you\u2019re able to use the pieces you\u2019ve collected by standing on their symbol pillar and then shooting the place on the board where you\u2019d like them to appear. The first puzzle, for example, is solved by standing on the pawn pillar and shooting a pawn to the position just back and to the left or right of the white queen \u2014 which is straight ahead of the black king.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">That\u2019s simple enough if you understand the rules of chess (which is mandatory for this puzzle, so brush up on the rules if you can\u2019t remember), but it definitely gets more complicated as you go. Remember, this isn\u2019t just chess \u2014 it\u2019s Destiny chess.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/how-to-solve-the-chess-puzzle-in-destiny-2-3.png\" alt=\"A Guardian spawns a Knight onto a chess board in Destiny 2\" title=\"A Guardian spawns a Knight onto a chess board in Destiny 2\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"Image: Bungie via Polygon\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">In addition to placing pieces, you can also destroy pieces \u2014 either your own or the black pieces \u2014 with \u201cDeletion\u201d or you can \u201cTake\u201d pieces, which turns the black enemy pieces into white ally pieces. The other catch here, and what makes this puzzle quite difficult, is that you must complete 27 chess puzzles (of varying complexity) with the 60 chess pieces you\u2019ve collected. This means you must be extremely efficient with the pieces you use and be mindful of when you use them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Before you get started, here are two quick tips as you\u2019re trying to solve the chess puzzle:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>,The board is labeled like a standard chess board, with A-H on the bottom side of the board and 1-8 on the left. Use this to keep track of which pieces you use and when and where you use them.<\/li>\n<li>While standing on one of the pillars that allows you to place a piece, you can aim with your weapons to make the chess pieces dissolve and instead show their symbol on the board\u2019s floor. This makes placing pieces on a crowded board much easier.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">We recommend you try a few boards on your own, as these big Destiny puzzles don\u2019t come around very often. (The last one this size was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/2020\/2\/6\/21124989\/destiny-2-corridors-of-time-puzzle-event-reward-explained-solution-community\">way back in early 2020<\/a>!) If you mess up a move, you can undo it via the green computer-thing at the back of the room. If you mess up a lot, you can interact with the book behind you to start over. And when you\u2019re ready for a step-by-step move walkthrough, check out the section below.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\" id=\"what-is-the-solution-to-the-chess-puzzle-in-destiny-2\">What is the solution to the chess puzzle in Destiny 2<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div><iframe title=\"CORRIDORS OF TIME 2.0 CHESS COMMUNITY EVENT PUZZLE!!!!\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/94zAus3qmGw?rel=0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">One of the cool parts about this puzzle is that it can technically be completed in multiple different ways, and not every successful solution will require the same number or types of pieces. You may even have moves left over, depending on what you choose.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The answers we\u2019ll list out below are those discovered by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/news\/561955\/marathon-full-match-video\"> friend of Polygon<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/94zAus3qmGw\"> Skarrow9<\/a>, a Destiny YouTuber known among the game\u2019s community for solving puzzles.

Some puzzles require multiple steps, which will be broken up by commas. You\u2019ll know you completed the puzzle correctly when \u201cAbsolute Pin\u201d appears on the left side of your screen.
