The Destiny 1 era will come to a close with the release of Age of Triumph, the final live update for the game.
Bungie will be showcasing what’s on offer via three livestreams, the first of which is taking place tomorrow at 6pm GMT. The stream will feature Lead Designer, Ryan Paradis, and Sr. Raid Designer, Joe Blackburn.
A teaser trailer for Rise of Triumph has also revealed that players will be returning to the Vault of Glass, once again coming up against Atheon.
The trailer also promises a 12-page Record Book, the game’s largest to date.
Bungie notes that Age of Triumph is intended to be “a fun and memorable celebration that will bring the first major chapter of our Destiny adventures to a fitting close”.
Whilst Destiny 1 will remain available to players, much of what you have earned in-game will not carry forward into the sequel.
“Sequels represent the start of a new adventure for every player, with new worlds to explore, new stories to tell, new powers to acquire, new loot to earn, and much more,” explains Bungie. “This led us to a decision that would enable us to serve both the game and the player’s best interests: Destiny 1 power, possessions, and Eververse-related items and currency will not carry forward. They will, however, remain accessible to you in Destiny 1.”
However, “the class, race, gender, face, hair, and marking selections for all characters that have achieved Level 20 and completed the Black Garden story mission will carry forward”.
