'Destiny' sequel set for next year

A few expansion packs are en route for 2016, as well.

Destiny's Valentine's Day event is well under way, but developer Bungie is taking an extra step toward proving its devotion to fans. The long-rumored (and apparently delayed) sequel to the sci-fi online shooter is slated for release next year, corroborating earlier reports from Kotaku.

And sooner than that, the game is getting a larger update this spring with a "significant" Light level increase and a bunch of new loot and challenges for folks who'd rather not duke it out adversarially in the Crucible. The Bungie blog post also mentions another big expansion is coming this year. So, after a stretch of silence and a new CEO, perhaps Destiny players can grind easy knowing their guardian will be getting some new adornments perhaps rather soon.
