Bungie Talks About Destiny's First DLC

The Dark Below will have its own story, and reuse some existing areas.

At Gamescom 2014, Bungie announced that it is currently working on two expansion for Destiny, with each one introducing new new competitive and cooperative adventures, as well as new weapons, armor, and player gear. The first expansion is titled The Dark Below, which will launch in December and introduces "its own story," Bungie has said.

"We call it an expansion because it has one of all the activity types from Destiny, so it's story, strike and beyond—and competitive and cooperative experiences in there," Bungie Director of Production Jonty Barnes said in an interview. "As well as new gear, new armor, new weapons and everything else."

Barnes also said that at least some of the new story content will get you to travel through different parts f areas which are included in the main game, so meeting players who don't have the expansion is a possibility. "We always want to create spaces where people can get together and cooperate, and we feel like that is a big innovation in Destiny," he said.

Destiny will launch come September 9 for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.
