Bungie and Activision have announced that the latest expansion for Destiny, titled Rise of Iron, will be released on September 20th. Rise of Iron is set to be a large expansion, as it will include an entire new storyline that will bring players back to where their journey began, as they team up with a legendary hero to fight an ancient threat. The expansion will require players to own both Destiny and The Taken King. Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision, commented:
“We have been working hard with our partners at Bungie and are planning great, new content for Destiny’s 30 million registered players. Rise of Iron is the first step in fulfilling that promise. There’s a ton of content packed in Rise of Iron, including a new location, a new Raid and a new Strike, combined with more quests, weapons, gear, a competitive multiplayer mode and more that we think players are going to love.”
Rise of Iron will be available on the PS4 and Xbox One on September 20th. The expansion will not be available for the PS3 or Xbox 360. For more information, check out the trailer above.
