Destiny: Rise of Iron
The wall which stood for centuries along the southern border of Old Russia has collapsed,
a battle-scorched reminder that our enemies still seek to destroy us all. Fallen mutants
now scavenge the tombs of the Golden Age, and the plague they have unearthed in the
wastes is more dangerous than even they understand. Join Lord Saladin. Journey into
The Plaguelands. Learn the fate of the Iron Lords and stop the growing threat before it is
too late.

• New enemy faction
• New competitive maps and a new 6v6 mode, Supremacy

is raising an army of corrupted “Taken” forces by manipulating the Darkness itself. You must
find a way into his impenetrable Dreadnaught ship to defeat The Taken King before he and his
dark army consume our civilization and bring our solar system to ruin.
Destiny Expansion II: House of Wolves
Destiny Expansion II: House of Wolves expands your Destiny adventure with a wealth of new
weapons, armor and gear to earn in new story missions and quests, three new competitive
multiplayer maps and a new co-op Strike. Additionally, House of Wolves introduces a brand new
competitive multiplayer event in the Crucible called Trials of Osiris, and a brand new co-op arena
activity called the Prison of Elders. The Guardians have grown strong, and now the Queen of the
Awoken has called upon them to hunt down the House of Wolves, Fallen subjects once loyal to the
Queen before their violent rebellion. Meet with the Queen’s emissaries at the Reef. Hunt down
their Fallen betrayers. Earn your rewards. Become Legend.
Destiny Expansion I: The Dark Below
The first expansion to the Destiny universe, Destiny Expansion I: The Dark Below features allnew
weapons and gear to earn through new story missions told through a new character, a new
cooperative Strike, a new six-player Raid, and three new competitive multiplayer arenas.
After years hiding amongst the Hive shadows, a new character, Eris Morn, has come forth bearing
an ominous warning: the Hive seek to summon a god, Crota, to destroy Earth. Find Eris in the
Tower to take on new quests that feature three new missions and new rewards.
Destiny
In Destiny you are a Guardian of the last city on Earth, able to wield incredible power. Explore
the ancient ruins of our solar system, from the red dunes of Mars to the lush jungles of Venus.
Defeat Earth’s enemies. Discover all that we have lost. Become legend.

Well for starters who are complaining that people who bought this game 2 years ago when the game was launched followed by various dlcs are at loss, you do realise that you are talking about 2 years here.
2 years with destiny is worth much more than the cost of the dlcs. We have had so much fun especially the raids and poe that anyone whos joining now will not have the same experience et all.
2 years down the line even games that cost £50 come down to a few pounds so thats how the whole game industry works. You cant expect a game to hold its value after 2 years without dlcs etc :-)
This is a wonderful game and whoever buys this will have a hell lot of fun and enjoy the rise of iron package coming in september.
Just so everyone knows the Rise of Iron Dlc is different from the Iron banner special event that happens every month in destiny :-)

What a kick in the teeth this package is for anyone who's shelled out a ton of money already on the game. A couple of years later and you can get everything including the new DLC for £35! Still, can't fault Activision and Bungie as some clever marketing and starving the community has worked wonders :sunglasses:
Xbox can be had cheaper if you buy that and use the upgrade on the store at £22.99
You can get cheap Xbox credit to lower the price.

But they've missed out on all the vanilla times etc, yes it comes included, however, the existing community isn't going to be doing the raids like they did first time round.
It's no different from any pre order game offering day one collectibles exclusive to that pre order, only for it to be sold with the game a year down the line.

What do you think happens to games 1-2 years after release? If you actually play the game you'll know all previous dlc becomes useless and you're going to either, get no time out if previous content or you'll do the old content and get items you'll never use and make no progress. Plus you'll really struggle to consistently find people to do it with unless you're with a new group of people. Buying it early gives you the experience of actually playing the content in its prime when its meaningful and the current end game.

Bargain for a first timer perhaps but I've kinda lost track of all the upgrades I've paid for across the PS3/PS4 platforms

Money machine? This includes the new iron banner game. Responding to your original comment it's not been repackaged when it includes the new game. The Taken King is £20 on Tesco Direct if you want that and buy iron banner later and it's going to cost more.
There are people yet to jump on board this game and anybody who has played it will agree there is a lot of game at this price.
For people who do have the previous then the upgrade is £22.99 on the Xbox Store and £32.99 on the PSN store.

they should have just made destiny 2 now. crazy another dlc pack, I already have all the rest of the game, will probably just hang on this time for the new dlc to come down in price rather than selling the disk and RE buying again !!! if they want people to start playing again who have the games but stopped playing this scheme isn't very good.
great deal if you don't have any though

23 Aug 161#7
Wow no one should support a business plan like this. Just trying to squeeze every penny they can get out of people & most of it comes from loyal fans who has been playing it from the start.
oUkTuRkEyIII to chris88
23 Aug 16#9
Loyal fans won't need to buy this. As I mentioned above there is an upgrade for them. I paid £18.99 for the upgrade over the weekend.

I skipped the taken king due to owning the special edition and being pretty much unable to upgrade for a half decent price.
But game sharing and the upgrade system have made this too good to miss. Quite looking forward to experiencing destiny again. It is a mechanically great shooter.

23 Aug 16#11
Great price. I knew I should have waited for this rather than get The Taken King edition. At the time I was 50/50 on what to do so went for The Taken King. Lesson learnt! Won't be buying Destiny again until it comes to whatever the final edition is right before the next game. So Destiny 2 will be bought before Destiny 3 is being released.

Read my comment above, you're saving money but seriously hindering your gameplay experience
chris88
23 Aug 16#13
Yes but the cost from the game when it came out & all the dlc that has come out since. I'm guessing it was quite a bit overall.
CoolDude0123
23 Aug 161#16
Damn that really sucks.
Oh I already knew that and and was playing by myself since the beginning. None of my friends play the game and it was far too much hassle to try get a group going, especially one that stuck with it. I managed to get groups going for the first raid which turned out to be stressful to organise. People never joining and not enough players coming on. Never got to play any of the other Raids. So played the rest of the game by myself the best I could so it makes no difference to me about playing in it's prime or playing it later when it's cheaper, I'd be playing alone no matter what. I would enjoy playing in it's prime better if there was matchmaking for those Raids. It's only good for people that actually have the friends to play with and those on my friends list that do play it, they have friends of their own they join which I could never join.

Great price, I remember when I got Destiny for ps3 in May of last year for about £15 off amazon (I didn't know anything about it or that there was going to be so much dlc).
I absolutely loved it, the thrill of playing VoG each week hoping for an exotic weapon or good gear (Fatebringer, VoC, PR, so many good guns) had me hooked. :smiley:
But with the ps3 running out of memory and TTK around the corner I sold it on to CeX for £13 credit last September.

base game on media, everything else codes? so you can't really resell it?
Check that out, it's been really helpful for people struggling to find groups

Well I fell for their trick once by buying the limited edition early on only for them to release taken King with all previous DLCs. Screw you Bungie. I will never buy anything released by you greedy ****.

for people saying it's a kick in the teeth time get all the previous content at this price, how useful do you think those 170 year one weapons will be ?

it wouldn't be so bad if they were all separate codes so then you could sell on the ones you already have... but it won't be :disappointed:

23 Aug 16#29
Unless you have a solid group of friends to carry out Raids, you'll be missing out a chunk of this game. Why matchmaking Raids can't be an option for those not fortunate to have a decent group is beyond me.
abhijitdash123 to Poch
23 Aug 16#30
Matchmaking is not in raids and end game content to avoid stupid people joining the game and leaving while you are about to kill the boss. If there was matchmaking you would have no control over the quality of people joining in, if they are kids who dont listen or adults who are too drunk to listen and so on.
There are numerous lfg sites for destiny (eg. destinylfg.com & destinylfg.net) to help you find a group or people who are doing the same activity as you. Its so simple to just message someone and join or post a game and wait for people to join in. Its that simple.
Obviously, this game is for people who have to put some effort. This is not for the lazy ones who dont want to do anything to play a game or busy people who have other important things to do in life. :smiley:

Bought the taken king edition for 27 pounds on ps4 couple months ago. Maybe I should just sell it, add 10 quid and buy this instead...
dusktilldawn
23 Aug 16#36
I preordered digital on Ps4 then 20 for each dlc I gave up on buying the king dlc. If they offered a discount back then I would have continued. I put loads of hours into the game had about 6 galahorns and rinsed all the raids. Cannot justify buying this. Besides it gave me time to play other games

I'm sorry, I don't really understand this. If I buy the copy of the 360 Legendary Edition from Tesco Direct for £8, and then if I take it to the till at Tesco, they will upgrade it to the Gold Edition for Xbox One for £23?
oUkTuRkEyIII
24 Aug 16#38
No the upgrade is on the Xbox Store.

good deal
to the guy who wants to sell their copy of the taken king - it's a good idea, but essentially without the download codes it's only worth the same amount as a vanilla copy of destiny which is currently about £5-6 (a bargain really as private matches are coming to all next gen copies of destiny)
in terms of activision ripping people off by reselling this addition at a cheaper price - this is just a catch up package applicable to people who haven't got the taken king - for the large majority of the player base - this collection will be irrelevant - for those wanting to join in, it's very reasonable to have all of the content in one place (although as mentioned the heart of most of the previous expansions kind of move on per expansion - still lots of missions, strikes, events, game modes and crucible maps though) - the expansion system is kind of similar to that of mmos where a new dlc will bring new content and the older content becomes less relevant as a result
so for me i bought the vanilla game for £32 spent £25 on the expansion pass £30 on taken king and £21.50 now on rise of iron - so just shy of £110 for the 2-3 year thing - so essentially the cost of 3 reasonably priced games - i don't feel ripped off or salty about paying this much and i have really enjoyed my time playing through the different phases in destiny, the different metas, different raids and the ups and downs of the game
there has been a little bit of extra free content separate to the paid dlc - but nothing ground breaking - festival of the lost, sparrow racing league, the valentine themed event thing and the april update
in answer to the other thing i saw on here - destiny 2 is likely to be released september 2017 but there has been no cemented announcements made yet - rise of iron is set to be the last formal paid dlc before destiny 2
incidentally just got my first ldr 5001 after like 4 months :P (and a decent imago loop too)

Hello, is this the cheapest way to get the full collection?
I played the demo and seems quite fun, it feels similar to boarderlands/mass effect but not as big, I assume these DLC will change that :smiley:
Chromium to Inquisitor
6 Sep 16#44
Yes it is. Is the demo the full game without DLC?

Just the downloadable trail on PSN. got to lvl 7, I assume when you get higher levels it gets more complex with elemental weapons, upgrades etc.

You will be able to access the earlier parts. I don't think you will get delivery until Monday /Tuesday now so the Rise of Iron will be releasing then.
