First Destiny DLC Will Have Story Mode
Some DLC packs are content to toss a few new multiplayer maps at you and call it a day, but the first planned DLC for Destiny, The Dark Below, sounds a bit more extensive.
“The Dark Below is actually a really interesting expansion; it’s got its own story,” Bungie Director of Production Jonty Barnes told Joystiq. “We call it an expansion because it has one of all the activity types from Destiny, so it’s story, strike and beyond – and competitive and cooperative experiences in there. As well as new gear, new armor, new weapons and everything else. Some of that attaches to existing places that you’re familiar to, so you might find that as you’re going through new areas, that you actually collide with players who are just playing the existing Destiny content. You’ll have those collisions. We always want to create spaces where people can get together and cooperate, and we feel like that is a big innovation in Destiny.”
Destiny will be out for PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One September 9. The Dark Below is set to release in December.
