WHAT IS DESTINY AND HOW TO YOU PLAY IT?
Described as a ‘shared world shooter,’ Destiny lets gamers play together in a huge online world.
It’s a mixture of the first person shooter and role playing game genres.
Players choose to be either a hunter, warlock or titan to battle aliens.
The story is set 700 years in the future when a massive planet-like alien called The Traveller arrives on Earth to help humans spread across the galaxy with superior technology.
But Earth’s protective alien is tracked down and almost destroyed, only protecting The Tower skyscraper – the setting for most of Destiny - leaving unfriendly aliens to raid the rest of the solar system, The Guardian reported.
In the game, players work together to slay aliens and complete missions to unlock new weapons and abilities to protect what is left of Earth.
Victories throughout the game help players ‘level up’ to open up new abilities.
All players start with a basic spaceship and mission map, showing activities available throughout the solar system, including quick ‘strike’ missions and longer explorations on Earth, the moon, Venus and Mars.
Players can communicate with friends or strangers who they invite into their team via gaming headsets.
Some missions require players to create teams to work together. Players don’t shoot each other, but work together to eliminate the enemy aliens.
Despite this, the game has an age rating of 16+ as there is a lot of violence used against the aliens.
There is no traditional end point of the game, with lots of missions to complete – and more in the pipeline.
