Destiny 2 is the tentative title for the upcoming sequel to Destiny, set for release in 2017 on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 platforms.[3][2] Work began on the game in November 2014.[4] The game was reportedly rebooted in May of 2016.[5]

Features

Destiny 2 will reportedly include a new Patrol zone on Mars, a location which was originally planned for The Taken King, but was cut due to time and resource constraints.[1] Bungie has also resolved to make Destiny 2 feel like a proper sequel, meaning that old planets, characters, and activities will be left behind. Bungie may also institute another change to Patrol missions in the form of "play-in destinations" — a new activity model that will revamp how the world functions, with the goal of making planet areas feel more populated with towns, outposts, and quests that are more interesting than the patrol missions given in Destiny.[2]

The game will feature downloadable content.[6]

Character aesthetics will be preserved and carried over, as long as they have reached Level 20 and have completed The Black Garden Story mission, and "veteran accounts" will be given "honors that reflect [their] Destiny 1 accomplishments".[7] Power, possessions, currencies, and Eververse-related items will not be carried over.[7]
