According to [[Tyra Karn]], at the height of the Last City's militarization and centralization, it was defended by eight total towers manned by Titans. Aside from the Tower and [[Bannerfall]], the others had been repurposed  over centuries of conflict.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/20/4)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]], Activision Blizzard, [[Quest]]: [[Beauty in Destruction]]''</ref>

In ''[[Destiny]]'', the Tower acts as the main hub for Guardians in between missions or [[Crucible]] matches. It is one of four "Social Spaces" available in the game, the others being the [[Vestian Outpost]] in the [[Reef]] (available in [[House of Wolves]]); [[the Lighthouse]], available after going flawless in Trials of Osiris, and the [[Iron Temple]] on [[Felwinter Peak]] (available in [[Rise of Iron]]). At the Tower, Guardians can interact with fellow Guardians, or the many NPCs present.
