Destiny 2

Bungie's Destiny 2 is a popular first-person shooter video game that was initially released in 2017 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows platforms. It was a pay-to-play game before transitioning to a free-to-play model, called New Light, on October 1, 2019. It was later released on Stadia in November 2019 and on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in December 2020. Activision used to publish the game but, in December 2018, Bungie acquired the publishing rights for the franchise. Destiny 2 is a sequel to Destiny, which was released in 2014, and its subsequent expansions.

The game is set in a fictional "mythic science fiction" world and offers a multiplayer "shared-world" environment that incorporates elements of role-playing games. Players can choose to engage in either player versus environment (PvE) or player versus player (PvP) game types. Besides story missions, PvE features three-player "strikes" and dungeons and six-player raids. Each destination also offers a free roam patrol mode where players can explore the area and interact with non-playable characters (NPCs). Unlike the original Destiny game that only featured NPCs in social spaces, these NPCs are an integral part of the game. The PvP mode has both objective-based modes and traditional deathmatch game modes.
