Destiny 2 reminds us that there’s extra to life than being a Guardian.
Destiny 2 introduces a brand new main character referred to as Hawthorne, who represents individuals who dwell exterior the Last City. This is a perspective that was fully lacking from D1, and particularly related at the start of the sequel, when humanity finds itself kicked out of the Tower and the Last City – and stripped of the Light of the Traveler.
As you’ll see within the video beneath, Hawthorne’s a little bit of a tricky nut, and doesn’t have a lot respect for Guardians and the Vanguard. Who can blame her? She and her folks have been residing in fixed hazard on Fallen-occupied Earth with no Guardians or Light-granted powers to guard them. She most likely has lots to show us about surviving in Destiny 2. Also, she has a cool chicken named Lewis.
This is the second Destiny 2 character intro video after yesterday’s highlight on Cayde-6, who additionally makes an look on this one. Cayde-6 is a returning character and fan-favourite, however Hawthorne’s an all-new face – and simply one in every of many, it appears like. We talked about Devrim Kay in our Destiny 2 European Dead Zone hands-on preview; like Hawthorne, he lives out the town partitions, and works carefully along with her to guard the outsiders.
These trailers, which we count on to proceed not less than by means of Ikora and Zavala if not different characters, are a part of Bungie’s push to make story really central to Destiny 2; it’s additionally why we’ve seen a lot of antagonist Ghaul. Villains and characters you keep in mind – a very good begin.
Destiny 2 releases in early September for PS4 and Xbox One, and involves PC in October.
A PC beta kicks off subsequent week, so test in if you’d like a taster.
