There have been rumblings of a Destiny 2 mobile game for a few years now—the rumours growing in intensity over the last few months, ever since Bungie laid off 220 developers amid speculation of what, exactly, the hell was going on. Those rumours are now reality, as Netease has announced Destiny: Rising—a mobile game that will act as a sort of alt-history prequel to the current Destiny.
Billed as an "epic" free-to-play mobile shooter, Destiny: Rising is set in "an alternate Destiny timeline" during the post-Collapse era. It claims to offer a mix of singleplayer, co-op and multiplayer modes, including some that will be familiar to current Destiny players.
