It's Your Destiny

Bungie's New Child is Destiny


Maybe you've heard of Halo. If not, maybe you've been under a rock for the past decade. Halo is the award winning franchise spawned by the creative studio known as Bungie. With a name likened to the punchline of a bad joke, Bungie has graced the gaming world with sci-fi epics filled with gritty space soldiers and evil aliens. They do so once again with their new game, Destiny.

Play Destiny to...Discover your Destiny


700 years from now, humans were visited by The Traveler, a celestial sphere that brought about the Golden Age of humanity. However, a cataclysmic event struck us down, and our colonies across the stars have been chased back the last safe city on Earth, where the Traveller looms above. Something bigger is coming, and the Traveler can't protect us forever. The City needs some new Guardians.

Space Tiger Not Included



Moving away from the faceless, alien punching protagonist of Halo, Destiny puts you in the boots of a Guardian of the City. This Guardian is your Guardian. You can customize him or her to your liking, picking between three races and three classes.

Guardian Variety


Destiny really allows you to be who you want to be, as long as that is a human, cyborg or space elf. Destiny's three races shown above in order from left to right are the Exo (inspirations from The Terminator series), Humans (inspiration from actual humans), and the Awoken (inspiration from elves...but in space). As long as you don't want to be a space unicorn jockey who chugs Red Bull and can dunk on Lebron James in zero gravity, then Destiny has you covered.

You're a Space Wizard, Harry!


For deeper customization, Destiny allows you to pick a class for you Guardian. The choices are the Hunter, the Titan, or the Warlock. Each class has its own perks and abilities tailored to your play style. Hunters roam the wastelands of Earth, searching for the perfect shot. Titans helped build the protective Wall around the City, and now they pledge to defend it. Warlocks are warrior-scholars, searching for knowledge and who to beat it out of.

Spaaaaaaaaaaaace


What are sci-fi epics without space travel? Destiny has plenty of locations to explore beyond Earth, including the Moon (Guardiansssss innnnn spaaaaaaaccceee). Although you can't actually pilot them, they are cool to look at though. You can also customize them too! Are you sensing a pattern here yet?

Fall Out Baddies


Your objective is stomp on these guys above. From left to right you have the Fallen, the Hive, the Vex, and the Cabal. The Fallen are basically space pirates that want planets for pirate reasons. The Hive are a parasite that infected our Moon and plan to destroy the Earth. The Vex are time-traveling killing machines from the future. And lastly, the Cabal are turtle-titans that are expanding their empire by conquering our solar system. These are all threats to our way to live, which is being alive. Push them back Guardians.


Destiny is available for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Fight to take back what was stolen from us, Guardians. And also, make sure to break a few  bones (as well as dance moves) along your way.
