About Destiny 2
Destiny 2 released on September 6, 2017, developed and published by Bungie. It is a free-to-play first-person shooter MMO where Guardians defend humanity across the solar system.
Core play mixes PvE strikes, raids, and dungeons with PvP Crucible and hybrid Gambit modes. Fireteams cap at three for most activities and six for raids, a structure closer to World of Warcraft group play than to battle royales like PUBG: Battlegrounds.
Players pick Titan, Warlock, or Hunter classes and progress through Power levels, seasonal ranks, and exotic gear chases.
