Destiny 2 Review: Beyond the Light (PS4)

Destiny 2 returns for the sixth time in the TEST columns of iGamesNews with the new premium paid expansion that just landed on PC, PS4 and Xbox One: Beyond the Light. Is it an investment that is worth gold ($ 40) or are we still going in circles?

Let’s start with the good news: the universe of destiny is finally evolving. Do you remember the darkness that chases the traveler, the counterpart of the halo parasite in Bungie’s newest baby? Well, they are there. Ilo, Mars, Mercury and Titan all fell under their blows and disappeared from the explorable plants in the game. They’ll be returning regularly, according to the developers’ will, and the base game will be stripped of much of its original content. And it’s also a large ellipse that anticipates interesting events.

To lead the resistance, your guardian, the defender of light, will examine Europa, one of Jupiter’s satellites made almost entirely of ice on its surface. The opportunity to meet the unknown exo, an ancient … well-known head, but also mysterious monoliths that appear to be associated with darkness, as well as a whole cohort of fallen men who are convinced that a war with the forces of darkness is going on to be able to win. Needless to say, indoctrination is never very far off in “Harvester” mode. This pitch is the most interesting, and even if these are just the beginnings of something bigger, we are very excited that this universe is finally developing into its most important subjects.

Europe, the backdrop for the further development of this story, is an icy glove. The topography is pretty terrific and offers some pretty crazy panoramas, but we’re still struggling a bit against the blizzard which can be a nuisance with certain jet engine movements or in combat. The area is quite large, which corresponds to that of a “large” DLC in the Destiny universe. It will offer its share of quests, forgotten sectors, and other public events. If the main mission can be completed in a few hours, in terms of indit content with Au-del de la Lumire

We’re on something entirely equivalent Rengatswhich is pretty good. And in the end, the players who bought everything from the start, with some old zones, the Bastion of Shadows and Rengats, still have a lot to do without doing too much in the circle between PvP and PvE. The same is not true for “Free to Play Free” players who only have access to a large demo …

If you didn’t start the game from the Bastion of Shadows, you collect some of your things and your hero will rise to level 1050. Destiny 2 is only burdened with the light level and your character will only fit Seasonal ranks Destinies will disappear with the next update. Some new RPG features are in the game, such as: B. the possibility of pasting polishing

in the cloak of his ghost or a new teaching force, stasis, quite devastating. It won’t be too much to overcome the rather difficult campaign with some new enemies: we advise you not to Rusher and from level up a little ct. Destiny 2 is still a great RPG and is building that stuff of his hero remains fascinating.

Automatic update

Also on the program is a new attack, but also a raid that is slated to land in mid-December so you have time to prepare. While the game does not bring new trophies or achievements, note the presence of new triumphs and a stalking season that rewards your progression through the seasonal ranks. If the loading processes on PS4 PRO are still very long, we are impatiently waiting to see what the patches of the PS5 and Xbox series, which should also be released very soon …
