The PS4 and PC versions of the game will be on display, so you should expect another wave of news, coverage, and content to dig into after the event is over.
They're going to unveil their Activision Launcher there, I can see it. They're big enough and Destiny a good enough fit for PC that they can get away with not using Steam.
FTFY
Based on their past and present marketing arrangement, I think PS is the safe bet here
I really do hope the PC port will be good. Which third party studio is working on it again? Vicarious Visions? High Moon Studios?
I was thinking the same thing. But I don't think it will be an Activision launcher, I think either Bungie will have their own launcher or, perhaps less likely, they'll use Battle.net.
But why call it "unspecified" when they have a marketing deal? (I get it it's probably PS4, I just find it really odd)
I watched the video and updated the OP a bit to reflect that this is apparently quite a long keynote.
They have a marketing deal with Sony, so that would be odd, but I guess not impossible.
I highly doubt we will see a non-blizzard game on battle.net. I'm guessing we will see bungie making a launcher for the game like you said. If it was an activision launcher then I don't think we would have pre orders for call of duty on steam already.I was thinking the same thing.

this pretty much confirms 60 fps destiny right? they wouldnt showcase the PC version at 30 fps.
LFG Darkness level 365.

Um, Bungie, there is a distinct lack of The Queen here.
So is Destiny gonna be allowed to have extra effects on PC? Is Scorpio gonna be allowed to run better than PS4 Pro? Or does a marketing deal with Sony require that PS4 Pro runs has all the effects as on PC and runs at least as good as on Scorpio?
So is Oryx, though...The queen is.dead
Who knows? I think at the very least the PC version will have better image quality settings. Hopefully support for higher framerates as well.
Marketing deals in the past haven't seemed to impact console performance at all. I remember quite a few games with Xbox marketing deals that ended up looking or performing better on PS4, for example. However, with Destiny 1, Bungie wanted graphical and performance parity between the PS4 and Xbox One versions. Maybe their stance will be the same with Destiny 2.

So is her brother and he's in that image.

Looking back at destiny 1 i believe Bungie will aim for parity between consoles again.
"He participated in the Battle of Saturn and is the only known survivor, as his ship crashed on Mars. However, his survival was unknown at the time, as control of the Crows passed to Variks. Uldren suspected that his sister survived the battle, as he could still sense her.[citation needed] He then spent the rest of the Taken War and throughout the SIVA Crisis to search for her, evading everyone including his own followers. His last known report indicated he disguised himself as a Fallen and allowed himself to be captured in order to find the Kell of Kings and replace it in preparing for a coming war. He also indicated that Mara approved of what he was up to."
I'm sure he's going to make an appearance during the Cabal war in Destiny 2.
He's not tho. He's hiding out with the Fallen.
I dont allow myself to build hope for that.Given the newest grimoires, I'd say there's about a 90%+ chance he's how they're adding playable Fallen to the game.
I agree. I believe the PC version is going to "disappoint" a lot of people because they will be expecting it to eclipse the PS4 Pro version.
Perhaps I'm being overly negative but given the incredibly strong marketing partnership between Activision and Sony over Destiny, I don't believe you'll see anything on PC that could potentially make PS4 owners say, "Damn, I should get this on PC instead."

CheatersWhat?
Yea this is going to be good. On May 18th. Destiny footage/news will dominate the internet. I'm hype. Can't wait.
60 fps and KB+M is enough for me, it can be identical to PS4 Pro otherwise.
Pretty much in the same boat myself.
More happy that I don't have to pay for PSN Plus in order to play anymore.
Anyone else afraid that the platforming sections are going to be hell on kb+m? Maybe I just need to git gud... lol
Depends on what Bungie's technical goals are and how they get there.I agree. I believe the PC version is going to "disappoint" a lot of people because they will be expecting it to eclipse the PS4 Pro version.
