For the MMO shooter Destiny 2, a new video has surfaced. It shows gameplay from the European Dead Zone. Apparently, it is a leak.
While Bungie only showcases what everyone already knows at Gamescom, this video is the find of the day. The video features 15 minutes from the new area “European Dead Zone.” It includes a new area, public events, adventures, loot, and more.
The video is evidently a leak from a test environment of Destiny 2 and not meant for you to see it right now.
Apparently, the video comes from a Polish channel, was then taken down, but numerous mirrors are already online. Watch at your own risk – it is naturally full of spoilers.
What information about Destiny 2 can be taken from the new leak?
People on Reddit immediately started examining the video as if it were from the Kennedy assassination.
They have come to these conclusions:
- The Glimmer cap is significantly increased
- All engrams are decrypted immediately in the video – but this could be because it is still in a test environment.
- The “Lost Sectors,” the new “Open World Dungeons,” are not too hard to find. However, it could be that this only applies to this lost sector.
- When a public event is started, the super is automatically charged. This is also helpful because significantly more mobs spawn.
- There is a type of “area-limited chest” that contains Glimmer and certain tokens for the European Dead Zone (EDZ).
- These tokens can be exchanged at an NPC merchant, Devrim Kay.
- Devrim Kay seems to head his own faction, which is tied to reputation. It could be that all planets have their own faction and rewards.
- The animations of the NPCs are significantly more developed compared to Destiny 1.
Where there is a leak, there are more. Since this evening, further leaks and information about Destiny 2 are circulating. Apparently, some gaming sites had the opportunity to try out Destiny 2 and see more than what has been shown in the beta and presentations so far.
There is likely a strict embargo on this information, but … the past has shown: Someone always breaks the embargo, and then leaks are on the way. We will surely learn more about that “Destiny 2” stuff that Bungie wanted to keep under wraps until September 6.
