They could get a passing point out, nevertheless it’s extra seemingly time and a spotlight will probably be centered elsewhere.
Destiny 2 – ???
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 could be the right time to say one thing concerning the upcoming beta, or change the massively late launch date for the PC model.
