Destiny View

Ever since its original reveal, it feels like developer Bungie has struggled to really describe Destiny. It's part FPS and part RPG, but you'll still find people all around the web with unanswered questions. With a PlayStation 4 alpha test running over the weekend and the title's beta launching next month, there's no doubt that many of these queries will be answered in the near future, but until then, you'll have to make do with this seven minute trailer.

Complete with a rousing musical score, the video has Bungie co-founder Jason Jones talk us through the main aspects of the upcoming sci-fi epic. From setting and lore to the game's mechanics, a lot of ground gets covered, and with a little luck, you'll be better informed about Destiny by the time it's over. Also getting some screen time are the release's hefty player customisation options, which include the ability to play as one of three species. Do you feel like you're a little more clued up after watching? Tell us if you want to be a robotic humanoid in the comments section below.
