Rumors about a big change in platforms for the Destiny Rise of Iron Release trailer were accurate too.

What the Destiny Rise of Iron Release Adds

“The wall which stood for centuries along the southern border of Old Russia has collapsed,” the description begins. Somehow, the Fallen have managed to release a “plague” that they don’t necessarily understand. Players team up with Lord Saladin to take them down. Saladin is from the game’s Iron Banner content.

Bungie confirmed everything the Xbox Store leaked. and the new activity line-up itself is pretty extensive. The story will add new quests along with that new campaign focusing on the Iron Lords and a dangerous new threat called the Splicers.

There are new armor pieces and gear to earn, which will definitely please anyone  looking to improve the look and stats of their Guardian.  Of course, Destiny is a primarily a first-person shooting game. As such, there are new weapons for players to craft and earn with the Destiny Rise of Iron release.

Raids are the end-all, be all to the Destiny combat experience. They focus on team-work and precision, making them some of the hardest activities to do in the game. This new update adds a single new Raid to Destiny. Buyers can look forward to a new Strike mission, Crucible Mode, and more multiplayer maps. The new faction of enemies come with a new set of bosses.

Players won’t just visit the Plaugelands in the campaign; Bungie is adding the area as an entire location for players to visit. The zone will come complete with a dedicated social space.

Destiny Rise of Iron Pre-Orders Now Available

Destiny Rise of Iron pre-orders kicked off on August 8th. As one might expect from a game update and not a completely new release, they’re limited to just digital downloads.

GameStop, Amazon, Best BuyPlayStation Store and the Xbox Store all allow users to purchase the game add-on ahead of its September 20th launch for $29.99. Both the Xbox Store and PlayStation Store offer pre-downloads so that players can get the game files on their system ahead of launch. Pre-downloads don’t entitle users to play the download early, just have it ready ahead of launch.

Buying every piece of needed content wouldn’t be a great experience for users. As such, Activision revealed Destiny The Collection earlier this summer. This edition of the game includes every piece of content ever released for Destiny. It’s a great way for users that haven’t jumped into the game, to do so.

Have fun with Destiny Rise of Iron. 

10 Upgrades Coming in Destiny Rise of Iron Expansion for Xbox One & PS4

Crucible Updates

Crucible Updates

 Crucible, Destiny’s multiplayer mode, is tweaked and tucked ever since it launched back in 2014. If it’s helpful, think of the Crucible as a traditional multiplayer in a first-person shooter. It’s brutal, it’s competitive, and could always use new maps to lend it more flavor.

Destiny Rise of Iron includes new maps for the Crucible, Bungie says. These maps will once again give players somewhere new in the Solar System to completely decimate their rivals.
