'Destiny: Rise Of Iron' (ALL) The Dawning Winter Event Announced - Trailer

by Rainier on Dec. 3, 2016 @ 5:30 p.m. PST

Destiny offers unprecedented variety of FPS gameplay, including story, cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes combined with public and social activities.

Set in the distant future, Destiny casts players as Guardians of the last city on Earth, who traverse the ruins of our solar system from the red dunes of Mars to the jungles of Venus. Players must battle enemies and reclaim what was lost during the collapse of mankind. Destiny's saga unfolds through grand tales and sweeping adventures by immersing gamers in a world with cooperative, competitive, public, and social activities.

Everything changed with the arrival of the Traveler. Long ago, it breathed new life into our system. Rain washed over Mars. Fresh air cleansed the skies over Venus. Soon after, humanity raced into the black, and colonized these newly remade worlds. It was a time of miracles – a great Golden Age.

It did not last. The Traveler had an ancient enemy. A powerful darkness that found us here on Earth, and nearly destroyed us. No one knows exactly what happened in those final moments, but we know this: we survived, and we owe our lives to the Traveler.

Destiny: Rise of Iron is giving players a new winter event called The Dawning, which combines the different cultural winter holidays that people brought to the City, as well as a celebration of the Light.

The Dawning is a three-week event beginning December 13th, 2016 and includes:

  • Gifts to be found, new Quests and Bounties to complete, along with its own Record Book with challenges.
  • The return of Sparrow Racing League with two new tracks, one set on Earth and one set on Mercury.
  • A new game mode, Strike Scoring.
  • New opportunities to customize your Guardian with awesome gear, Sparrows, Ornaments, consumables, Shaders, Emblems, Emotes, and more.

In our darkest days, Humans, Exos, and Awoken found the Traveler where it made its last stand, low above Earth, silent and immobile. We built the City – our last – within its protective veil, fighting countless wars to keep its peace. From that dark age, Guardians were born.

Now, a new era has begun, and the only hope for our future lies in unlocking the greatest mysteries of our past. You are a Guardian of the last safe city on Earth, able to wield some of the Traveler's incredible power. You are taking this mantle just as a new day dawns. Titans, Hunters, and Warlocks have finally returned to our long-lost worlds, only to find out we are not alone.

Defend the last safe City on Earth. Defeat our enemies. Explore the ancient ruins of our solar system. Discover all that we have lost.

Become legend.
