Bungie has confirmed that private matches are heading to Destiny alongside Rise of Iron, the title's upcoming expansion. In other words, you'll be able to enjoy the shooter's Crucible modes without jumping online with strangers. Going by what the developer's said during its Gamescom livestream, you'll have full reign over how matches come together. You can tweak things like game types, available maps, score limits, time limits, light level caps, and whether vehicles appear or not.
As for what you can actually gain from private matches, the official blog states that only rare (blue) rewards can be dropped, but your actions will actually count towards daily bounty and test weapon progress. However, you won't be able to progress quests, weekly bounties, and all that record book stuff. And when it comes to Crucible reputation, you'll gain a flat 30 reputation upon the completion of each private match. Not too bad, eh?
How long have you wanted private matches in Destiny? Invite all your buddies in the comments section below.

If this were available at launch, I'd still be playing. As it stands, none of my friends play anymore so it's a bit late for me.
Maybe I can finally get that triple play trophy. LOL.
I bet they won't add matchmaking for raids and nightstrikes though. Probably saving that for destiny 3.
@Napples they'll be selling raid and nightfall matchmaking as a time limited consumable through the eververse store
Forge mode pls? :3
