Destiny fans have something to look forward to as the franchise makes its debut on mobile devices with Destiny: Rising, a free-to-play sci-fi RPG shooter set in an alternate timeline of the Destiny universe.
A Fresh Take on the Destiny Universe
Developed by NetEase Games
Destiny: Rising is the result of a collaboration between China-based NetEase Games and Bungie, following a $100 million investment in 2018. The game explores a post-Dark Age era, offering a new perspective before the Tower and Guardians emerged.
Innovative Gameplay Features
Unlike previous Destiny titles, players can choose from a roster of hero characters, including familiar faces like Ikora Rey and new additions, each with unique abilities and stories.
The game supports single, co-op, and competitive multiplayer modes, featuring classic elements like Ghosts and Warlords.
Engaging Combat and Exploration
Players can switch between first-person and third-person views, utilizing touchscreen controls or controllers. The game includes campaign missions, six-player co-op strikes, and PvE and PvP modes.
New locations such as Jiangshi and the Red Sea Rift introduce fresh battlegrounds against enemies like the Hive and Vex.
