On the official game site for Destiny, you will see the saying ‘Your hero. Your story. Your legend.’ The heroes that you have a choice from are Titans, Hunters, and Warlock. You live in a civilization that has changed because of an unknown called the Traveler. Explore the ancient ruins of the solar system, where the guardians of last safe city on Earth are located beneath the Traveler, and you will have to fight to reclaim your civilization against enemies, and become legend. As you fight to reclaim your land that you have lost, you will earn customizable weapons, gear, and vehicles. Also gameplay will include on-the-fly matchmaking, which will allow players to see and interact only with the other player they were matched with.
