This is Bungie's Destiny

[Shawn Zipay]

After some leaks of information and concept art found their way to IGN, Bungie rolled with the punches and officially released their own piece of high resolution concept art for their upcoming project.

Currently entitled Destiny, the game takes place far into Earth's future and may actually be an MMO.

According to the document, “Our story begins seven hundred years from now in the Last City on Earth, in a Solar System littered with the ruins of man’s Golden Age. A massive, mysterious alien ship hangs overhead like a second Moon. No one knows where it came from or what it’s here for, but only that it’s our protector. Meanwhile, strange, alien monsters creep in from the edge of the universe, determined to take Earth and the Last City. We are young ‘knights’ tasked with defending the remains of humanity, discovering the source of these monsters and – eventually – overcoming it.” Elsewhere in the document, the massive alien ship is referred to as “the Traveler.”

Since this reveal, Bungie officially released the following piece of concept art for their fans.

There is also quite a bit of speculation that the world premiere for Destiny will show up during the upcoming 2012 VGA's on SpikeTV.

A selection of leaked shots from IGN can be found below.

I do pray for it to be an action/interactive mmo such as firefall, not another click to shoot.

The 2nd to last shot is definitely From "Retourn of the Jedi" Where Yoda raises Luke`s X-wing fighter out of the swamp. See this you must.

The main, large, picture, the "tank" reminds me of the tanks in Robotech.
