Bungie has flicked the reset switch on Destiny’s game world servers for another week, which means a fresh set of challenges for Guardians to tackle.
First up, the Nightfall reset has ushered in The Dust Palace as this week’s mission, with the modifiers Arc Burn, Ironclad, Catapult, and Exposure. Meanwhile, the Prison of Elders’ arenas have been rotated once again, with Broken Legion and Urrox’s Grudge available for Level 32 and Level 34, respectively.
Destiny was released in 2014 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360. The game was met with polarizing reviews at launch, although proved a massive commercial success for publisher Activision. The game received two expansions, The Dark Below and House of Wolves, in December 2014 and May 2015, respectively, with Bungie rolling out The Taken King in September this year—the game’s largest expansion to date.
While not selling as well as the base game, The Taken King still proved a big success, and was met with far more positive reviews than the vanilla version of Destiny. The DLC topped the U.K. All Format Charts upon release and sold through the majority of physical copies on the PS4. Recently, Bungie has released a number of event-based additions for its shared-world shooter, including the Sparrow Racing League, which runs for three weeks.
Looking ahead to the future, the former Halo developer has seemingly ruled out the possibility of major expansions, and instead will flesh out the Destiny experience with more events. However, it has said that one major update will arrive by spring 2016, and will be the largest since The Taken King’s release.
