Destiny Beta For Xbox To Begin Late July

While Destiny will be launching across multiple platforms, so far it seems that the folks at Bungie have been favoring the PlayStation platform. Not only will PlayStation gamers get exclusive content, but it seems that they will be given earlier access to the game’s beta. Now the good news is that Xbox gamers won’t have to wait too long.

According to Bungie, it seems that the beta for Destiny will be making its way onto both the Xbox 360 and the Xbox One late July. It will be available for Xbox gamers 1-2 weeks after PlayStation gamers have access to it, or at least that’s what the trailer for the game seems to suggest, as you can see from the screenshot above.

The beta for Destiny on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 will begin on the 17th of July, so based on this it seems that Xbox gamers can only expect it either in the third or fourth week of the month. Gamers who are interested in participating in the beta will have to pre-order the game register using a code supplied by retailers.

Recently Bungie opened up the game’s alpha to PlayStation gamers. The alpha proved to be a huge success as over 6 million gamers were created during the time it was made available. Bungie expects Destiny to be a hit and it seems that Activision does too, having invested $500 million into the game.
