ORYX, THE TAKEN KING
The Hive army would have infected the Earth were it not for the efforts of Eris Morn, and the Guardians who heeded her warnings. Now, Crota is dead, and Oryx, armed with a dark power beyond anything we’ve yet to face, is coming to take his revenge.


THE TAKEN ARMY
Oryx wields the ability to control a twisted army of vile corruptions known as the Taken. These new enemies have been wholly consumed, possessed by the Darkness, bodies and mind twisted into service of their King. Now, they are bent to a singular purpose – our eradication.


NEW SUPERS & SUBCLASSES
Along with an arsenal of all new gear, Guardians can discover and wield devastating new powers. Claim and master the Titan Sunbreaker, Hunter Nightstalker, and Warlock Stormcaller. Board the Dreadnaught. Face The Taken King.

I'll bet 9/15 is also the date that the old PS-exclusive strikes finally come to Xbox.
I really hope they pack all the DLC into one reasonably-priced bundle for people who haven't played since November.
 
My hype is very moderated after learning they are continuing with the Playstation Exclusive stuff. I was very disappointed in how Bungie treated their existing fanbase at Destiny's release. To learn they are going to extend that even more years leaves me not all too hopeful for their future. More about getting new people in than maintaining a community like the Bungie of old, these days. Which is pretty saddening.

Trailer looks neat. We'll see how it plays out. Just sad that it has such a blemish. But then, it was at the Sony conference so I suppose it was silly to expect any better.
 
Might need to start leveling a Hunter now lol, that Bow is soo badass. Is there any info out yet pertaining to what exactly is included? I want to make sure it's worth 40$!
 
Trailer looked good, hyped me up a bit to get back into Destiny, might even try out some of the other expansions.
 
The more I watched, the more I noticed reused assets. Really hope that Bungie steps their game up from their DLC and delivers something worth coming back for.
 
So excited for this. Besides a month or so with Bloodborne, Destiny is all I have played for like 9 or 10 months. :)

Looks like the new raid is only 3 player given the artwork. Is 6 player dead? I hope not.


Still super hyped.

3 guardians v Oryx? Not likely. The mechanics would be so much less interesting. VoG will be hard to top though, esp given how weak CE is in comparison.
 
I'm actually sick of this exclusive shit.

And if you bought the game on day 1, you miss out on a few extra things like emotes, XP boosts and shaders that come with the $80 versions. Unless of course you want to buy everything again.

Bungie really doesn't give a damn any more.

Is this a game or expansion? So confused.

It is a new retail release with the full game + all the Expansions + Taken King @$60

Digital upgrade to Taken King for these that have the game + all expansions @ $40

Edit - There is the Collection Editions too.

$40 is a lot to ask for an expansion. I'd like to hope this can be one where nobody has to worry about a lack of content.
