''Destiny'' is an upcoming MassivelyMultiplayerOnlineRolePlayingGame developed by {{Creator/Bungie}} Studios. It's their next big series after ''{{Franchise/Halo}}'', and has been likened to "''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' [[RecycledInSpace in space]]". ''Destiny'' takes place on a post-apocalyptic Earth, where humanity was nearly destroyed by alien foes but was suddenly saved by a mysterious entity known as "the Traveler". The enormous sphere settled above Earth and mankind built a city underneath it to reside in safety. Now they're beginning to spread out, and it's up to you, the Guardians, to defend and expand humanity from the patrolling alien enemies in order for man to return to the stars once again.
