The original Destiny seemed like one of those games that would have been right at home on the PC, but it was never to be. For the sequel, developer Bungie decided to bring its online-only multiplayer title to the home of the FPS. Now, over a month after it hit the consoles, Destiny 2 is arriving on the PC next week, which means an all-new launch trailer.
We may have had to wait longer than Xbox One/PS4 owners for the full release, but the PC version of Destiny 2 comes with all the benefits our favorite platform offers. If you've got the hardware, playing in glorious 4K is possible (you can watch the trailer in the same resolution). It also comes with an uncapped framerate, full mouse and keyboard support with custom key mapping, text chat, an adjustable field of view, a detailed settings screen, and 21:9 monitor support.
Destiny 2 will launch at 10 am PT on October 24. The console version and PC beta have received mostly positive reviews, so it's likely to do well. Head on over to battle.net if you want to preorder, as it's not coming to Steam.
