Game Overview:
Destiny is a first person role playing shooter developed by Bungie and published by Activision.
It is Bungie’s first new project since the end of their partnership with Microsoft that saw them working on Halo for nearly a decade.
Since Destiny 1 launched in 2014, it's been the seventh best-selling franchise in terms of tracked sales.
"I think we need to dispel that notion," says Bungie's communications director David Dague.
It's worth noting that this figure only accounts for physical sales.
Not owning the IP was also a factor in the Activision-Bungie split.
