This week, Destiny 2 finally reintroduced 12-player matches to the competitive Crucible. It’s a big step in the right direction.

I often like to play new video games when they’re new, but I am forever grateful for whatever part of my gut kept me from diving into the first Destiny until it was nearly a year old. I skipped playing the game when it was more boring, more barren and more hostile to its players. These days, I’m feeling good about…

Destiny 2's next piece of downloadable content is called Warmind, and will be out on May 8. More details to come via stream, as is Bungie’s way. Bungie also plans to change weapon slots and a whole lot of other stuff. Will this be enough to bring you back?

Bungie just delayed Destiny 2's much-anticipated 6v6 Iron Banner due to an issue that caused errors under certain circumstances. Instead of Iron Banner, next week’s featured Crucible playlist will be six-player Rumble.

Bungie has posted the patch notes for today’s big “Go Fast” Destiny 2 update, including a bunch of specific numbers and percentages for all the buffs they’re implementing. It’ll be interesting to see how different the game feels with all this in place.

Destiny 2 launched exactly six months ago today, though at times it feels more like six years. A bunch has changed since September, and the game has gone through some dramatic highs and lows. (Mostly lows.)

Imagine there’s a video game that you’ve played for hundreds and hundreds of hours. It’s the only game you really play. You think you’ve seen everything there is, and then one day, you see a YouTube video, or a thread on Reddit, or maybe a tweet. Someone says they’ve found something new. Someone says they’ve found a…

Remember those incredible Destiny figures threeA released a few years back? There’s now one more, a Titan wearing the Hanged Man shader.

Bungie last night announced plans to overhaul Nightfall activities in Destiny 2, a video game in which players travel through space, shooting aliens and receiving apologies from developers.

At a first glance, it may seem like Destiny 2 and Monster Hunter: World don’t have much common. But there are several clear reasons why people like me are switching from Bungie’s first-person shooter to Capcom’s third-person monster-fighter. The biggest one, in my view, comes down to grinding and loot.

One of the most pervasive complaints among those who play a lot of competitive Destiny 2 is that the game is too slow. Players don’t move around fast enough, and it takes too long to defeat an opposing player. It sounds like that’s going to change.

This is the Focus Rifle from Halo: Reach remade as a Destiny exotic and it looks right at home in elegant interface of Bungie’s loot shooter.

Destiny 2 is getting raid armor perks and some other nice tweaks in next week’s patch, all detailed on the weekly Bungie blog update. No massive changes in there, but a couple of good steps toward a more rewarding endgame.

No matter where I am in the solar system, what fantastic adventures I embark upon in the name of Dead Orbit, my heart is always back in the European Dead Zone, sniping from the church belfry with my Destiny 2 lifemate, Devrim Kay.

It is exhausting, keeping track of all the controversies in Destiny 2 these days. But here we are again, with Bungie again taking flak from hardcore players who remain unsatisfied with the way the game is heading.

Stop me if you’ve heard this one: In September, Bungie releases an online first-person shooter. A few months and a disappointing expansion later, the game is in trouble. Fans are mad; lots of people are quitting. Bungie vows to do better and sets about making improvements. Patient fans are eventually rewarded with a…

It’s been a rough few months for Destiny 2, a video game in which players travel through space, shooting aliens and then posting complaints on Reddit. This afternoon, for the first time in 2018, Bungie put up a lengthy blog post addressing player issues and outlining what’s coming next.

In late 2013, veteran Bungie composer Marty O’Donnell finished Music of the Spheres, an eight-part musical work designed to be released alongside Destiny. It never came out. But today, thanks to an anonymous leaker, the elusive work is finally on the internet—at least until the copyright strikes hit.

There is a certain routine that every dramatic Destiny incident follows, and it popped up yet again this weekend thanks to a visit from everyone’s favorite tentacle-faced alien.
