In Bungie's latest developer livestream, the team teased that the Apollo expansion for Destiny 2 will include a "Metroidvania-inspired destination." The expansion will take a non-linear approach, with players being able to explore multiple destinations from the start. Progressing the story and finding a specific item will open up new areas for exploration, as Bungie's goal for the expansion involves keeping players invested in the world. New concept artwork for this destination was shown, confirming that players will meet a new group of people, uncover untold secrets, gain new powerful abilities, and make important choices along the way. Bungie also teases that 25 to 30 "different threads" of stories may be experienced as players complete different activities.

This game was fantastic — great story, art style, gameplay. It's very hard, but there are sliders to control the difficulty. I have this game in my top 10 metroidvanias, so I'm excited for others who don't have a PC to try it out
