Destiny: Rising is a new mobile RPG shooter set in Bungie’s Destiny universe

Destiny: Rising will be available to test in November.

NetEase is licensing the Destiny brand from Bungie and it has been granted creative freedom to develop its own storyline and vision for Destiny: Rising. “We want to capture and depict a specific time where the reins are in the hands of the players to experience, to explore, to define,” says Stone Shi, senior narrative designer, at NetEase.

Unlike Destiny or Destiny 2, you’ll be able to pick from a variety of Destiny hero characters instead of creating your own Guardian based on Hunter, Warlock, or Titan classes. Hero characters include ones like Ikora Rey that exists in Destiny and Destiny 2, as well as a host of new characters.

The micro-transactions are gonna be something else, huh

 

[EviLore]

Veilguard is looking way better than usua---oh, never mind.

 

[LordCBH]

I’ll try it. But expectations are low because NetEase is shit.

 

[Guerilla Munch]

they're doing it again lmao

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Some of that moment-to-moment gameplay looks alright.

It also looks Chinese-knock-off as hell.

Rising Deez Nuts! Bungie fumbled an IP that most studios would be dying for to have under them. It's criminal how they never could realize Destiny's potential.

 

[Punished Miku]

Seems a few years late. Honestly I would expect Destiny players would be into this. Could easily see them tying in a mobile game to the grind they're already on.

[TVexperto]

They really fucking up this brand

 

[Ceadeus]

Ah damn, I don't have either the money or the time for this. I've to learn to let it go

 

[Crispy Gamer]

That Warlock scythe looked damn good

 

[clarky]

PSA: I run a D2 survivors group that meets every Tuesday (at reset) and every Friday through Sunday. Emergency meeting tonight, don't fall for this.

PM for details. Be strong Guardians

Rising? Why such a cliche title?

That gif aged poorly considering Diablo Immortal was a huge hit.

 

[Loomy]

What we've learned over the last year or so is that everyone do indeed have phones and Diablo Immortal is printing money.

 

[nikos]

I'll try it but I don't see myself playing a mobile FPS. Would have preferred to see a more mobile oriented genre in the Destiny universe.

One of the bigger fuck-ups in gaming imho.

[Felessan]

They really fucking up this brand

Like... Diablo and Call of Duty?
Both are made by Netease and both are successfull

They started this collaboration five years ago. Could be alright.

 

[Rush2112]

What to do…can’t blame activision anymore. Could it be that the devs are greedy too?

This is my thought on it. Who knows. But isn't Netease also making a mobile GAAS game for Sony for the Horizon I.P.?

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.

 

[j0hnnix]

Mobile..

 

[The Cockatrice]

They need your money to buy vintage cars so go ahead and spend all your cash on this turd.

[ReBurn]

Nobody has tried a mobile hero shooter before

Agreed. Always surprised to see people on here say it's intrinsically bad in every aspect. I consider it the most rough diamond on the FPS market.

We've had like 25 ''Destiny killers'' since the game came out but those games now have 12 concurrent players while destiny is still sitting on 50K on steam right now. The fact so many are willing to keep playing despite the content droughts, vaulting of old content and not even having a good system for new(er) players should really tell you something.

Game is truly goated but has some really foundational design flaws, unfortunately.

 

[Bkdk]

netease better make some damn hot female chars to get gamers interested.

 

[vivftp]

You're thinking of NCSoft who are making a Horizon MMORPG

 

[mckmas8808]

Ah yes. My bad. Aren't they both Chinese companies?

Well to be fair. New dungeon (probably my favorite yet) dropped this last weekend. So player count is above average.

 

[DeepSpace5D]

I’ll give it a shot. Could be a good way to pass the time on my mobile device while I’m out the house.

 

[Germuso]

Looks ok.

 

[StueyDuck]

it's a netease mobile game, as much as we all think and know it's gonna be poop it's already got a built-in audience of most of the east, it's gonna find it's whales and make bank

 

[amigastar]

Mobile you say, huh?

 

[Varteras]

Ah yes. My bad. Aren't they both Chinese companies?

NCSoft is Korean.

 

[LordOfChaos]

What needs justice is Nier Reincarnation for mobile

 

[MrMephistoX]

I’ll try it. But expectations are low because NetEase is shit.

I feel like Hoyoverse is eating every mobile Chinese developer’s lunch. Genshin and Zenless Zone Zero may be Gacha but they’re also DECENTLY well made.

 

[recursive]

Nice. Same publisher that shitcanned the dev of visions of mana. Fuck off with this garbage.

 

[rodrigolfp]

Even more aim assist shitshow.

 

[March Climber]

Seems a few years late. Honestly I would expect Destiny players would be into this. Could easily see them tying in a mobile game to the grind they're already on.

That’s exactly why this has the potential to succeed. Destiny 2 is already built with mobile trappings in mind. This feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Magazines for $1, reloads cost .50¢ extra!
