Destiny 2 Story Campaign Details Revealed

4.1
The team behind Destiny 2 has promised that the game will offer an epic story that players will be able to follow. And based on early reports, it appears that may indeed be true. The game’s story is said to have a clear momentum and focus that drives players forward in a way that Destiny 1 was never quite able to do.

These new details come from Edge magazine, who played the entirety of Destiny 2‘s story campaign. Some slight spoilers follow.

Those who played the Destiny 2 beta on consoles or saw the opening mission in the game, called Homecoming, will know that the mission ends with the game’s main villain, Dominus Ghaul, capturing the Traveler, stripping the Guardians of their Light, and destroying the Last City. But what happens after that?

After the player’s Guardian is kicked from Ghaul’s command ship, according to Edge, players awake in the European Dead Zone (one of the four new locations in Destiny 2, and the game’s largest) without any weapons or abilities. Without any abilities, even those that may have become completely second nature from playing Destiny 1 such as jumping, players stagger through the environment and traverse a distance with a different perspective.

The story eventually leads to the game’s social space, The Farm. Players meet Suraya Hawthorne, who says that a shard of the Traveler lies in the European Dead Zone. By going to the site of the shard and defeating an enemy force that is also after the shard, players regain their abilities once again.

From there, players go on a mission to regather the Vanguard—Zavala, Cayde, and Ikora—throughout the solar system. It also sounds like players will also meet characters along the way who will appear in The Farm, as that social space expands to give players more vendors and NPCs to interact with.
