The free-to-play mobile first-person sci-fi shooter set in the Destiny universe is developed and published by NetEase Games and is officially licensed by Bungie, creators of the Destiny and Marathon franchises.
The title features a solo campaign, along with six-player co-op in both PvE and PvP game modes.
The main story of 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.
Destiny: Rising has 12 confirmed characters, each of whom possesses a unique relic and is aligned with one of three elements: Solar, Void or Arc: Attal (Arc), Kabr (Arc), Estela (Void), Gwynn (Arc), Jolder (Solar), Maru (Void), Ning Fei (Arc), Tan-2 (Solar), Finnala (Solar), Ikora Rey (Void), Umeko (Void) and Wolf (Customizable and Solar versions).
The game comes with PlayStation and Xbox controller support, and according to the developer, it will perform at 90fps on selected iPads.
Destiny: Rising overachieved its pre-registration goal and saw 10,144,648 players registered before launch, which guaranteed all participants of the prelaunch registration multiple rewards that will drop via the in-game mailbox, including 20,000 of the basic in-game currency Glimmer, five Silver Leaves used for leveling up characters, 20 Enhancement Prisms for weapon enhancement, 10 points of currency for character pulls in the standard banner called Bon Voyage Charms and a cosmetic skin for the Satiyaaliksni grenade launcher.
