In Destiny a key voice actor has reportedly confirmed their involvement in Destiny 2.
He was the star of “The Taken King” and breathed life, charisma, and mischief into a somewhat sterile game: Cayde-6, who in the base game was merely the contact for Hunters, shone in “King of the Taken” and became a fan favorite with some memorable scenes. Notably, the chemistry between the laid-back Cayde-6 and the mysterious Eris Morn was spot on.
The secret: Cayde acted as a kind of surrogate for those players who, despite an epic and menacing story, simply could not wipe the smile off their faces. It was well received.
Nathan Fillion is likely back for Destiny 2
In English, Cayde-6 is voiced by TV star Nathan Fillion (Castle, Firefly).
According to a fan report on reddit, a Destiny player met Nathan Fillion at a signing event. Others in line, the redditor writes, were there to get Firefly stuff signed. The Guardian, however, had Cayde’s “book” with them – a bonus from the TTK Collector’s Edition.
Fillion, as the happy fan recounts, was thrilled to shake his hand, sign the book, and asked the Guardian if he would be back in Destiny 2. Fillion confirmed that he would be. He is in Destiny 2.
Looks like fans can look forward to more “Get your Rock off my Map” moments.
Admittedly, this is not official. We only have the redditor’s report and this picture of the signed book as evidence – but … that all sounds quite plausible and the thread on reddit brings a lot of joy to fans.
Cayde-6 has a special appearance in this fan comic:

What do we know about Destiny 2?
Currently, not much is known about Destiny 2. However, there is a lot of speculation.
It is suspected that it will be released in Fall 2017. Destiny 2 could be released for PC as well as for Playstation 4 and Xbox One. “Could” – as mentioned, not much is officially known yet, but this information seems to be the most concrete. In 2016, Destiny 2 was reportedly rebooted. Luke Smith, who was in charge during “King of the Taken”, will take the helm. For quite some time now, almost everyone at Bungie has been working on Destiny 2. And that will be quite a few employees.
Recently, PR candles from Activision have been summarizing as: Destiny 2 is going to be seriously awesome. Experience shows that Bungie will likely withhold most of the information until summer 2017, assuming they stick to a Fall release pattern for new Destiny titles.
