Destiny Had Over 4 Million Players During its Beta

4.6
The Destiny beta was a beast, with Activision announcing today that 4,638,937 players participated in the early access stress test of the game launching September 9.

"Hosting a beta at this scale is an incredible feat, so we're thrilled to see the phenomenal response. But the beta is just a taste of what's to come," said Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg. "This is the biggest beta of this console generation by a wide margin and the largest console beta ever for a new video game IP to date."

MTD I honestly think it had this many people play it was because of the amount of codes given to a person who pre-ordered it..


That and toward the end of it they did make it a open beta after all lol.

PinkieShy If only it was coming out on PC.


It is coming out on PC? Pretty sure they're actually trying with the PC version so its pushed back from consoles, not 100% on it though.

JRMH The game was not how I expected what-so-ever. I wish they'd expand MP. I stopped playing before I even learned of the competitive MP in the game, which was the reason I downloaded it to begin with. Great game, but not enough MP. :


You do realize that it was just a beta right? Either you're a troll or really f*cking stupid.


Well there was 1 game mode and only 8 levels so what do you expect?
