Bungie has updated their website for their upcoming game Destiny, revealing more about the classes and aliens the players can use, as well as the locations available in the game. The Guardians will be the characters available to players, and they come in Warlocks, Titans, and Hunters. The characters follow the standard magic, strength, and speed breakdown that many games follow.
Warlocks are the game's magic users, and sound like a cross between archaeologists and wizards.
"Warlocks have long studied the Traveler, mastering some of its arcane energies. Its true purpose still remains a great mystery, but discovering truth has always driven you into the unknown. Now, our enemies are the only thing that stands between you and the lost wonders of our Golden Age."
Titans, on the other hand, are focused on strength and honor, and appear to be the real guardians for the Guardians.
"The first Titans built the Wall, and gave their lives to defend it. Now, you stand in the same high place, steadfast and sure, protecting all who shelter in your shadow. You hail from a long line of heroes, forged from strength and sacrifice. Our enemies may be deadly and merciless, but so are you."
Hunters are rogue-style characters that have sinced reformed, to a degree that is.
"Hunters once prowled the wilderness and wastelands, taking big risks for even bigger rewards. You're no outlaw-at least, not anymore-but making your own luck has always meant bending the rules. Your unique brand of daring and ingenuity is needed now more than ever."
The website also gives details about two of the game's settings, Abandoned Earth and the Moon. In addition, the website has pages for Venus and Mars, but they are currently blank. Bungie also has two races of aliens listed, The Fallen and the Cabal. While not much is said about the Cabal, The Fallen are described as being the scum of the whole galaxy, and come in Derg, Vandal, and Captain classes.
Bungie is expected out sometime in 2014 on the PlayStation 3 and 4 and Xbox 360, with a rumored appearance on the next-gen Xbox a possibility.
