[BLOG] Destiny 2 Won't Explore The Darkness

Destiny 2's coming up soon, and Bungie confirmed last week that the threat of Destiny 'The Darkness' wouldn't end up being discussed during the sequel either. Players would love to find out what it was so this is a little disappointing, but turns out that actually they might not be the only ones who don't know.



Talking to Game Informer, game director Luke Smith said "Destiny 2 is a game about Light, and what happens when it’s taken from you, and the lengths that Guardians will go to get it back. We’re exploring the relationship between the player and the Ghost in terms of Light, and Ghaul’s coveting of the Light. As such, we wanted to carve off other things that we didn’t think were important to the release, such as words like The Darkness."



He did admit that players were due some closure on The Darkness, but said it wouldn't be happening in Destiny 2. Why? "We had no idea what it was. Straight up. We had no clue."



So it seems that the mysterious The Darkness is so mysterious that not even its own creators know quite what it is. They admitted there's been some ideas thrown around such as saying it was the name for the group of aliens you fight, but decided that their IP deserved much better than just that.



Hopefully if there's a Destiny 3, we'll find out just what players have been fighting against.
