Destiny is an upcoming massively multiplayer first-person shooter video game developed by Bungie. Unlike typical FPS games, Destiny will feature role-playing elements and as such has been likened to "World of Warcraft in space".[2] It has been reported that sequels will be released every two years through 2020, with downloadable "Comet" expansions released in the years between the main Destiny titles.[1] The first game is a timed Xbox exclusive: it will be released simultaneously on the Xbox 360 and the next Xbox in fall 2013. Destiny will later be released for the Playstation 3 and PlayStation 4.[2]
