Both are playable on the present, and Hearthstone has the Fireside Gathering raid, however neither is want of main bulletins now. They might get a passing point out, nevertheless it’s extra doubtless time and a focus will likely be targeted elsewhere.

Destiny 2 – ???

Destiny 2 launch trailer

Rumours are swirling that Bungie are going to indicate up with some bulletins for the PC model of Destiny 2, given it’s hosted on Battle.web. It can be the proper time to say one thing in regards to the upcoming beta, or change the massively late launch date for the PC model.
