  • Latest Destiny ViDoc Finally Details What is Coming in The Taken King Expansion

    Sure, Destiny: The Taken King was first rumored and then finally revealed yesterday at E3. Sure, there's been a lot of talk about it but nobody really knew just what sort of content would be included in the expansion. Today, Bungie released the latest ViDoc for said expansion and actually provided some fresh details on what fans can look forward to.

    First and foremost, each class will finally get their third ability! That means for Titans, you get a Solar ability. This gives you a hammer that you can beat people with. Hunters get their Void ability that manifests itself as a bow and arrow that lets you pin targets in place. Warlocks get their Arc ability, allowing them to shoot lightning out of their hands. It's a bit more nuanced than that, but that's what the ViDoc is here for.


    The team did mention some new multiplayer modes that are coming, the Taken enemy type, Oryx, and a bit about the new locations. They also mentioned new missions, new strikes, and that a new raid is coming. However, they were quite a bit more vague about those things.

    Also revealed this week is a special "Legendary Edition" for Destiny. This version of the game comes with Destiny, The Dark Below, House of Wolves, and The Taken King for $59.99 (USD). Alternatively, you can get just The Taken King for $39.99 if you already own the other stuff. Or, you can go very deep down the rabbit hole and buy The Taken King - Collector's Edition for $79.99 (USD).

    The Collector's Edition includes all of this stuff.

      Like the first game, we're left wanting more.

      When Destiny first launched in late 2014, it was something special, almost magical. Bungie and Activision created a new franchise that let players explore parts of our Solar System from their couches, forge new friendships, take down massive enemies, and feel akin to comic book superheroes. However, that game was not without its faults. At launch, the game lacked much in the way of in-game story, opting instead to send the...
