Destiny: Rising Hits 10M Pre-Registrations as Its Launch Approaches

Destiny: Rising hit 10,058,039 pre-registrations and unveiled its first character trailer on Aug. 17, 2025.

The trailer showcases Gwynn, the Reaper, a 5-star Void character specializing in close-quarters combat. She is armed with a shotgun and sidearms, and her Relic is Verdict, a scythe that enhances her abilities.

Besides Gwynn, the title already has 10 more confirmed characters: Ikora Rey, Jolder, Kabr, Wolf, Attal, Estela, Finnala, Maru, Ning Fei, and Tan‑2, each of whom possesses a unique Relic and is aligned with one of three elements: Solar, Void, or Arc.

Developed and published by NetEase Games and officially licensed by Bungie, Destiny: Rising is slated for release on iOS via the App Store and Android via Google Play on Aug. 28, 2025.

The upcoming free-to-play mobile first-person sci-fi shooter set in the Destiny universe features solo campaign missions, along with six-player co-op in both PvE and PvP game modes.

Destiny: Rising takes place in an alternate Destiny timeline and explores a narrative set after the collapse of civilization during the dangerous times of the resulting Dark Age, when, with the help of Iron Lords, humanity has broken free from the shackles of tyranny and begun to rally against the alien forces intent on its extinction. Amid the chaos of the early years of The City, the core narrative of the game follows a new generation of Lightbearers who were brought back to life by enigmatic beings called Ghosts as they embark on a mission to ensure humanity’s survival.
