Although the Destiny Beta had previously been touted as a pre-order bonus for loyal Bungie fans, the development studio have now taken the move to make the Beta open and free to anyone who wishes to try it. As of 4PM Pacific time yesterday, you could download and play the Beta on any of the supported consoles and jump into the upcoming game.
Colm recently reported his impressions upon playing the Beta here, and people all around the world have been taking the opportunity to try out Destiny prior to its release. With a current drought of new releases on the market, it seems like everyone is playing or talking about destiny – and Bungie seem to be taking advantage of this fact and looking to gather as much valuable information and feedback as possible whilst the Beta is still going.
