Action-Packed Battle in the Moon
Game developer, Bungie, will take players to the moon with its first-person shooter game, Destiny 2: Shadowkeep. The next chapter to Destiny franchise, this role-playing game offers a free-to-play world where you can unleash elemental powers against enemies. Create your guardian and defend the Last City of Humanity from the dark forces that lurk beyond our solar system. This new installment let you experience a fully polished expansion of the game you loved.
Nightmares on the Moon
In Destiny 2: Shadowkeep, players will get to see some familiar places and faces combined with a lot of new twists. The game will see the return of Eris Morn, who gets into trouble yet again. Alive and well since the fall of the Tower, Eris has been scouring the solar system for the Darkness. And she found it on the moon.
The moon will see considerable alternations since the first Destiny game. Players will see familiar places, including the Hellmouth, as a lot of the map in this game is based on its predecessor. However, it will be three times bigger with enormous crevasses running through the entire planet that looks like a glowing chasm. There will also be a huge red keep in these cracks where things, called Nightmares, lurk. These Nightmares are things from the characters’ past sent back to torment them.
Destiny 2: Shadowkeep is scarier and more serious expansion with lots of creepy caves and things that leap out of the darkness.
Old Foes but New Raids
As with the other Destiny games, players will get the chance to choose the guardian that they want to play. You can choose from the armored Titan, mystic Warlock, or a swift Hunter. However, it’s not only the guardians who are making a comeback. Destiny 2: Shadowkeep will also resurrect old foes from Destiny 1 and Destiny 2. Among the enemies that will make their way back into the game are Crota, Dominus, Zydron, and Atheon,
While the game will re-introduce past enemies, it will give an all-new raid that is far more challenging. The game will take you to the Garden of Salvation, a new six-player raid set in the Black Garden. Black Garden was an alternate realm initially shown at the end of the Original Destiny’s main campaign, but Destiny 2: Shadowkeep will show you the realm as a full raid. And rather than a slap-fight with a blob of metal, there will be more to it this time around.
On top of a raid, Destiny 2: Shadowkeep will also add another dungeon. This new attraction will follow the same format of Dreaming City’s Shattered Throne, which includes three players, raid-lite mechanics, and encountered loot.
New Exotics and Improved PVP
A new DLC means new Exotics, and Destiny 2: Shadowkeep does not disappoint. The game has got some doozies that will make combats more exciting. Included in these new exotics is the heavy bow which can know enemies to kingdom come. There is also a hand cannon which is a one-hand sniper. However, while it does an awesome job in killing enemies, it can set you on fire when you shoot too rapidly. Finally, there is trace rifle which creates a big crit spot on enemies. This rifle makes a good weapon during raids.
Armory will also get an overhaul in Destiny 2: Shadowkeep with the introduction of Destiny 2 Armor 2.0. It is a new gear system which adds more stats to armor and enables players to mix and match mods easily. Additionally, the game will also re-introduce Artifacts. However, instead of being a vestigial sixth armor piece like in the original Destiny, it will function as a secondary power source.
Armor aside, Destiny 2: Shadowkeep also improves various RPG elements. Players can use finishing moves on low-health enemies in exchange for Super energy. A finishing move is an awesome and stylistic blow to an enemy that you have hit with a melee strike.
Destiny 2: Shadowkeep has cooperative and multiplayer campaigns. Players will have the choice to play with or against friends and other Guardians in various PvE and PvP modes.
The Future of Destiny
Fans of the Destiny franchise are in for a treat with Destiny 2: Shadowkeep. The game brings to the table an improved version of the contents that the series is known for. Its mix of the old and new elements makes the game much more exciting. These new features and mechanical changes are a hint of Destiny’s greater future.
