With the excitement and anticipation building up from the reveal of Bungies next game Destiny on Sunday some people might find their mood's to be dampened as Activision have announced that Destiny will not have a 2013 release. They said it will be coming out in 2014 but have not said when, it is a safe bet it could be within Q1 or Q2 of 2014 but nothing is for sure yet. Read below for more details.

Activision has warned not to expect Bungie's Destiny in 2013.

 

"Although Bungie's amazing new world was revealed today, Activision has not included the launch in its 2013 outlook and there should be no speculation or expectation of a different result," said the publisher today in a statement.

 

Destiny is scheduled to be released for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and all future console platforms, with the new Xbox and PlayStation expected on shop shelves before the end of the year. This means it is unlikely Destiny will be a next-gen launch title.

 

Destiny is billing itself a "shared-world shooter" in an always-connected world. Players assume the roles of Guardians in the last safe city on Earth. Bungie has yet to release any in-game footage of the game.

 

"For all the unknowns, Destiny still feels very much like the product of Bungie," said GameSpot's Shaun McInnis after glancing a first look at the game last week. "More specifically, it feels like Bungie taking what they've done well over the years and moving in a new direction, with new technology, toward something well beyond Halo. I know I can't wait to see what else Destiny is."

well that has ruined my day becase now i guess we will have to wait till next year for destiny ah well time will fly bye 4 sure :laughing: :thumbsup:

 

And with all that extra time to polish the game... they can delay the game as far back as they want for all I'm concerned. This looks like an extremely levelheaded decision to give the game more time, even a comfortable lead. Imagine if this had been done/allowed for a few of the Halo titles. Considering the magnitude of it's ambitions, this can only mean good things for Destiny.

Disappointing but not surprising. I know Bungie will come out with a masterpiece as they always have when they're ready to release Destiny.

I just realized that the possible reason it's been delayed is because it's to avoid any interference with the release of the next call of duty.
