Destiny’s First Expansion, The Dark Below, Arrives On December 9
You’ve conquered the Iron Banner, mastered the Nightfall strikes, and have swept through the Vault of Glass with your eyes closed. You’re ready for Destiny’s first expansion.
Bungie and Activision have detailed exactly what you can expect from The Dark Below. In addition to new gear, players can boost their end-game light level from 30 to 32. You’ll also get five more bounty slots, which should make it less painful to pursue multiple exotics at the same time.
The new story missions focus on the Hive god, Crota (whose sword you can wield against its makers in one of the base game missions). You’ll get your tasks from a new character at the tower, Eris.
There’s also a new three-person strike called The Will of Crota, a new six-player raid called Crota’s End, and three new multiplayer maps. PlayStation players will get additional time-limited exclusives (until at least next fall). That comes in the form of a second strike, The Undying Mind.
The Dark Below will cost you $19.99 or as part of the expansion pass with the second DLC pack for $34.99. For more Destiny, check out the All Hallows Eve event going on right now.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
