Destiny April Update Releasing on April 12th, Prison of Elders Content Teased

Bungie finally dated its next major content update for Destiny – it’s out in April 12th and will deliver some new PvE content, including a new Strike.

According to David “DeeJ” Dague on This Week at Bungie, the update will include new PvE challenges, new (and updated) gear, an increased max Light level, updates to the Sandbox and Crucible and a new quest centered around the Blighted Chalice Strike. The image showcased above features Guardians in Prison of Elders gear (with a Taken shader of sorts) so it appears as though Year One content is making a comeback. The update will be free of purchase for those who own Destiny: The Taken King.

The next three weeks will see Bungie hyping up the update with Twitch streams planned for March 23rd, March 30th and April 6th, all at 11 AM PST. The team will walk players through the new things to do and earn while also covering other features.
