Formerly known as Battle.Net. And yeah, pretty big news. The PC version of Destiny 2 will released and played via the Blizzard App launcher, which is a definite first. And one that makes sense as Activision and Bungie, unlike other content provders and publishers, don't really have their own PC-specific launcher.
Bungie CEO, Pete Parsons, said, “This is a defining moment for our studio, and we couldn’t have done it without the continued support of our partners in Activision, Sony and now Blizzard.” He added, “We have an amazing community of players who have been with us on this journey, but with the sequel, the team are paying close attention to welcoming new and returning Guardians to the universe with something for every type of gamer, including gameplay for solo, cooperative and competitive players with new places to explore and adventures to conquer.”
"As Destiny fans, we were excited to learn that the sequel was coming to PC," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We're pleased to support Destiny 2 as the first non-Blizzard game on our platform, and we look forward to joining fellow Guardians in their fight against the Red Legion."
Destiny 2 is out September 8 for PS4 and Xbox One, but there hasn't been any confirmation of when we can expect the PC version to drop. Be sure to check out footage of the
gameplay debut.
