Our Take
Destiny has a hugely engaged fanbase and so it’s good to see Bungie being clear about their plans with proper communication. We’re sure we’ll see the full unveiling of Destiny 2 at E3 in June and knowing it’s the team responsible for The Taken King who have been put in charge of the story development, we’re confident it will be a lot better in that area than Destiny 1. In the meantime, we hope The Age of Triumph represents a large enough sandbox update to keep Destiny players happy.
