The Dark Below is the first of two confirmed DLCs for Destiny. It is set for release on December 9, 2014.[1]

Features

Story

The Dark Below will be set in the Hellmouth and will involve stopping a dark god Crota who has risen an army of Hive.[2][3][4] Players will be guided by Eris, a new character.[5]

Gameplay

Story, Strike,[6] multiplayer maps[1] and missions from other modes will be added, along with new gear, armor, and weapons. Some of this attaches to pre-existing locations.[6] Due to a glitch in the game it has been seen that Bungie's current additions for this expansion will contain multiple story missions, 2 Strikes and 1 Raid. More multiplayer maps can be expected.[7] The level cap will be raised to 32.[1]

Trivia

The trademark for the expansion was filed in 2013. Activision had Blizzard Entertainment file the trademark,[8] which led to some confusion as to whether the expansion was related to World of Warcraft.[9]
