The upcoming expansion for Destiny 2 – The Witch Queen – is set to become the most pre-ordered expansion in the history of the sci-fi MMO FPS. Via a tweet from the official social media account (embedded below), it was announced that the game has already passed the one million pre-orders milestone.
This piece of positive news for the title comes during a rather celebratory period for Bungie, the creators of Destiny 2, as the company was recently acquired by Sony for $3.6 billion. This announcement came alongside several assurances included in both the Sony and Bungie website posts on the news, ensuring the continued creative independence of the studio and that non-PlayStation players will not be getting a worse experience.
So, what can we ascertain from this news? Well for one, the constant jabs and jokes a la “Destiny is a dead game” have never been more inaccurate, with the surge of players slapping down a deposit for the next big content update somewhat cementing the game’s position as one of the most popular MMOs out there right now.
