Destiny 2 7.0.5 Release Date

Destiny Update Version 7.0.5 was released on April 18. Destiny 2 is a free-to-play online first-person shooter video game developed by Bungie. It was originally released as a pay-to-play game in 2017 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows. It became free-to-play, utilizing the games as a service model, under the New Light title on October 1, 2019, followed by the game's release on Stadia the following month.

The game was published by Activision until December 31, 2018, when Bungie acquired the publishing rights to the franchise. It is the sequel to 2014's Destiny and its subsequent expansions. Set in a "mythic science fiction" world, the game features a multiplayer "shared-world" environment with elements of role-playing games.

Like the original, activities in Destiny 2 are divided among player versus environment (PvE) and player versus player (PvP) game types. In addition to normal story missions, PvE features three-player "strikes" and dungeons and six-player raids. A free roam patrol mode is also available for each destination which features public events as well as activities not available in the original.

These activities have an emphasis on the exploration of the destinations and interactions with non-player characters (NPCs); the original Destiny only featured NPCs in social spaces. PvP features objective-based modes, as well as traditional deathmatch game modes. Given below are the Destiny 2 Update 7.0.5 Patch Notes.

Destiny 2

Destiny 2 is a popular first-person shooter game developed by Bungie and published by Activision. The game is a sequel to the original Destiny game and was released on 28th August 2017, for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows.

In the game, players assume the role of a Guardian, a protector of humanity, who must defend the Last City on Earth from various alien races that threaten its existence. Players can choose from three different classes, each with their own unique abilities and playstyles: Warlock, Hunter, and Titan.

Destiny 2 features both a single-player campaign and multiplayer modes. The campaign follows the story of the Guardians as they attempt to reclaim their powers and defeat the Cabal, an alien race that has taken over the Last City. Multiplayer modes include various player-versus-player (PvP) modes such as Control, where players must capture and hold certain points on a map, and Trials of Osiris, where players compete in high-stakes matches to earn rewards.

Destiny 2 Gameplay

As in the original game, players may level up and improve their Guardian characters' statistics to perform better in combat by accumulating experience points (EXP). When a certain quantity of EXP is reached, the player's Guardian character will level up. Since the release of the Shadowkeep expansion, this leveling system has been replaced by a "season pass" system that awards various things when players "rank up" using EXP.

The "main scenario" missions are specific tasks that non-player characters (NPCs) provide to the player in exchange for things and experience points. Getting through the main scenario quest lines advances the game's main story.
