Destiny 1 Gets Surprising Update Seven Years Later

Destiny 1's Tower Receives Unexpected Festive Makeover

Seven years after its initial release, Destiny's iconic Tower social space has received a mysterious and delightful update, featuring festive lights and decorations. This unexpected addition has captivated players, sparking speculation and excitement within the community.

The original Destiny, while still playable, largely faded into the background with the 2017 launch of Destiny 2. However, Bungie's commitment to incorporating legacy content into the sequel—reintroducing classic raids like Vault of Glass and King's Fall, and exotics such as the Icebreaker—continues to engage dedicated fans of the original game. It was these loyal players who first discovered the surprise Tower transformation.

On January 5th, reports surfaced online detailing the unannounced update. Players logging into Destiny found Ghost-shaped lights adorning the Tower, reminiscent of past seasonal events like The Dawning. However, unlike previous events, the space lacked snow, and the banners displayed differed from past celebrations. Crucially, there were no in-game prompts or notifications indicating a new event.

A Forgotten Event?

The lack of official communication from Bungie has fueled speculation among players. Reddit users, including Breshi, pointed towards a canceled event, "Days of the Dawning," originally planned for 2016. Comparison of unused assets from this scrapped event with the current Tower decorations reveals striking similarities, suggesting a possible connection. The theory proposes that the decorations were scheduled for a future date after the event's cancellation, with the assumption that Destiny 1 would no longer be active by then.

As of this writing, Bungie remains silent on the matter. The year 2017 marked a significant shift for the franchise, with all live events migrating to Destiny 2. While this festive update isn't an official event, players are encouraged to enjoy this unexpected treat before Bungie potentially removes it. The surprise serves as a charming reminder of the enduring legacy of the original Destiny.
