Destiny 2 is all we care about right this moment, apparently. What a surprising twist for VG247 dot com.
Many Destiny 2 rumours dropped this weekend, suspiciously near Destiny 2’s official announcement, and Arekkz has rounded all of them up.
First up, Italian web site Lega Network posted a now-retracted article supposedly displaying a picture from an Italian Facebook web page devoted to Destiny 2. We don’t know if the Facebook web page itself was official and posted early, or if i’s a fan web page that received maintain of one thing from a retail worker – or if maybe the entire thing was full bollocks from begin to end, so this one comes with a advice so as to add salt.
According to this supply, pre-orders will web entry to a Destiny 2 beta, and GameStop prospects will even get a Cayde-6 motion determine. Let’s hope meaning the fan-favourite Hunter Vanguard will survive the destruction of the Last City in Destiny 2 – if any of that is legit.
Second, a picture of a supposed Xbox One Destiny 2 poster did the rounds on social networks; right here it’s on Imgur, sadly with out credit score. It appears to be like very very like the Destiny 2 posters that leaked last week, which in fact might imply it’s a PhotoShop job or that each leaks are real. Similarly, the dodgy high quality may very well be overlaying up a faux, or a results of a retail worker having to be very sneaky. Isn’t this enjoyable? (Eurogamer‘s sources say the unique poster leak was legit, if that helps you make up your thoughts.)
Anyway, in accordance with this second, probably additionally fully garbage supply, there can be a Destiny 2 beta for Xbox One gamers, too. We’d nonetheless count on to see PS4 gamers get early entry like the primary Destiny beta (Sony must woo Activision fairly exhausting to interrupt up that little love-in) however with a bit of luck, this one seems to be true and the inexperienced workforce received’t miss out fully.
The third one comes from Sensnowy on Twitter; the German streamer was in a position to pre-order Destiny 2 on PC in a GameStop, and had the receipt to show it. Of course, you could possibly faux that, and it’s not like retailers don’t ever make errors (or simply willingly supply pre-orders on speculative titles), however coming from a fairly well-known title it’s fairly compelling and gives additional weight to the rumours Destiny 2 will come to PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
The receipt additionally suggests there’ll be a restricted version of Destiny 2, which isn’t in any respect stunning. Since we’ve seen Destiny console bundles previously, you may search for a specifically branded Destiny 2 PS4 Pro.
Finally, German retailer Instant Games is brazenly taking PC pre-orders, too, and once more, whereas retailers usually supply pre-orders on imaginary gadgets, European retailers do tend to only go forward and reveal stuff American and UK chains keep tight-lipped about. (You can typically simply wander into retailers and purchase video games earlier than launch date, too; it’s very stress-free.) The description on the location mentions that particulars are unconfirmed, although, so we will most likely write this one off.
None of any of that is tremendous stable, however certainly a full Destiny 2 reveal – full with retailer pre-order push – is true across the nook. Destiny 2 is predicted in September this yr, in any case.
