Forums - Gaming - Destiny’s PlayStation-Exclusive Content Detailed

During last week’s PlayStation E3 2014 Press Conference, you might remember the illustrious Adam Boyes noting that PlayStation owners were set to receive a ton of exclusive Destiny content — literally too much to detail in the show itself. Now that the E3 hubbub has died down, I asked Bungie and the PlayStation elders to share those details right here on PlayStation.Blog for the first time.

At launch, PS4 and PS3 owners will get exclusive access to a unique co-op Strike located on Mars, an exclusive competitive map, and a slew of exclusive guns, gear, and ships. Read on for the full details below. Oh, and if you tried out Destiny’s PS4-exclusive First Look Alpha over the weekend, let us know what you think in the comments below!

The Dust Palace Strike: An exclusive three-player cooperative Strike that can be played with friends or match made. You’ll track a Cabal extraction team through the husks of an ancient human skyscraper, the Dust Palace, buried in the shifting dunes of Mars and face a new enemy, the Psion Flayers.

The Exodus Blue Competitive Multiplayer Map: A mid-sized Crucible arena that pairs perfectly with Control and Skirmish game modes. The Exodus Blue, a long-dead vessel, once brought hope and humanity to worlds beyond Earth. Here, Guardians challenge one another, forging a new hope and future in the fires of the Crucible.

Gear

For the Warlock class, Manifold Seeker armor that was built to help Warlocks survive the secret realms of the Vex.
For the Titan class, Vanir, a battle-tested armor set forged to protect Titans against the heavy firepower of the Cabal.
For the Hunter class, Argus, a durable all-environment wire-weave for those out to scout the frontier.

Weapons

The Monte Carlo, an exotic assault rifle, is a handcrafted showpiece with a sleek look that masks the cruel reality of its function — the efficient elegant delivery of war against any who would tarnish its legacy. Upgrades increase the weapon’s “hip fire” effectiveness and boost melee cool down, providing a firm grounding for close range domination.

The Hawkmoon, an exotic hand cannon, is a true gunslinger’s weapon — a smooth sidearm that makes every bullet count with intricate “hawk feather” etchings carved into the weapon’s silvered barrel. Damage boosts increase the combat effectiveness, making it a formidable weapon.

Ships

“Aurora Wake”

A hull lined with arcane instruments, crafted by a circle of Warlocks – gifting the ship with a preternatural sense for the strange.

“Crypt Hammer”

A deep-strike insertion variant, built to carry Guardians safely through contested space. Carries hardpoints once used to hold Suros TL-SEAD anti-radiation missiles.

“Outrageous Fortune”

A rugged, versatile explorer for those ready to gamble everything in search of ancient secrets and alien power.

The PS5 Exists.

i dont like this. i dont like when developers are holding a version of their game back to this extent. xbox owners are paying the same price and they should get the same content. if it were an extra few side missions like the AC ones i would say okay, not that big of a deal. but guns, ships, and gear directly effect gameplay. so yeah, i dont like this, i hope these are timed exclusive content, thats the best scenario i can realistically see happening now.



Sweet, makes me want a PS4 and this game

The destiny ps4 bundle is starting to look tempting. At first glance the game didn't do anything for me, but after seeing the alpha and hearing some friend reaction to it it's starting to pique my interest.



Meanwhile, PC gamers get jack shit.

Or maybe we'll get some exclusive content too when it's eventually ported over.

Exclusive content for PC gamers: paz onlz 49.99 for a year old port.

Allas, even if its on PS platforms, I dont like deals like these. I never liked them and they never affected my purchase decisions when it came to a game.



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

This is all timed exclusive.

I don't mind it because the communities are seperate. If the X1 and PS4 owners played together though then it would be messed up.

We always get the best deals. ;D

I've never actually bought a game that had any sort of exclusive content -- for any system, so I've never felt the pain of missing out on some (probably)pointless little goodies. This would've been the first time, but it seems Activision doesn't want my money.
