For prospectiveĀ Destiny 2Ā players looking to pick up the game before The Final Shape releases, now’s your chance.Ā Humble BundleĀ is offering a bundle calledĀ Destiny 2:Ā The Story So Far, and it includes every expansion plus a few extras for $40.Ā
Player onboarding has been a sticking point for theĀ Destiny 2Ā community for quite some time. While the game is technically free-to-play, that experience is limited to a few activities and some locales to patrol. The ongoing narrative and the bulk ofĀ Destiny 2Ā content are behind expansion and season paywalls, naturally making it a nightmare for new players to navigate.
If players opt for the $40 tier of the bundle, they’ll get access to all of the playable content currently in the game. That includes:
- Shadowkeep
- Beyond Light
- The Witch Queen
- Lightfall
- Bungie 30th Anniversary Pack
- Forsaken Pack
- Lightfall Dungeon Key
- Annual pass for Lightfall containing access to all Seasons 20-23 content
This removes the potential confusion of a first-time player trying to decipher which store listings contain actual content versus cosmetic items or premium currency. On top of that, Lightfall alone is usually sold for $50. The savings speak for themselves.
The cool thing is that the bundle has different tiers, too. If players don’t care aboutĀ LightfallĀ Dungeon or seasonal content, a $20 tier offers just the listed expansions. At $12, it’s the everything precedingĀ Lightfall. And at a measly $8, players still get a full expansion and some of the oldestĀ Destiny 2Ā content still in the game,Ā ShadowkeepĀ and theĀ Forsaken Pack.
As a bonus, purchasers can know that at least some portion of their funds will go to charity. ForĀ Destiny 2: The Story So Far, part of the money goes to The Bungie Foundation.
