Destiny: Rising has landed on Android, marking the first time the Destiny universe has been accessible on mobile. Destiny is an online-only multiplayer first-person shooter video game series developed by Bungie. The first game in the series launched in September 2014.
What does Destiny: Rising bring to mobile?
Popular features of the original game, like six-player Raids and three-player Strikes, are here. But the developers have layered on roguelike challenges and PvPvE battles. The game also has social side activities like Sparrow Racing, Clan Housing, and Fishing.
Destiny: Rising is published by NetEase Games on mobile. You’ll be able to swap between first-person and third-person perspectives. You get arsenal flexibility as weapons are shareable across characters.
The first big challenge kicks off with the Season 0 Week One Gauntlet event. It offers special emblems and community rewards. Once that wraps, the Season 1 Week One event begins. It puts everyone around the globe on the same starting line to chase leaderboard rewards.
Destiny: Rising is also digging into a fresh part of the story. The chapter rewinds to an alternate timeline, long before the original game, when the Iron Lords rose from the Dark Age to give humanity hope. Step into the untold era as new Lightbearers, revived by Ghosts to face alien threats and help restore humanity’s place among the stars.
You play as the Wolf, a customisable Lightbearer carrying a Relic that unlocks unique abilities and Super Abilities. You can also switch things up by fighting as iconic Destiny figures such as Ikora Rey and Iron Lord Jolder.
Get it at launch!
At launch, you get over 200 free draws and at least 12,500 Lumia Leaves. A collection of Exotic weapons and an exclusive Exotic ornament is also up for grabs.
There’s a 14-day welcome event and milestone achievements, all of which offer Lumia Leaves and extra draws. The Bear the Light event offers an emblem that can also be redeemed inside Destiny 2.
Grab the game from the Google Play Store. It will be free-to-play on Android. Also, read our news on Nintendo Drops Hello, Mario!, Letting You Interact with… Mario’s Face!
