Destiny House of Wolves DLC Out Now, Dark Below Maps Available for Everyone

Today's the day. After weeks of video broadcasts showing off the new content coming to Destiny through the House of Wolves expansion, the add-on has finally arrived. It's available now across all platforms, introducing more multiplayer maps and modes, along with more weapons and gear to collect.

House of Wolves is Destiny's second major expansion, following December's The Dark Below. Now that House of Wolves has launched, The Dark Below's multiplayer maps have become available in the Crucible for everyone--even people who don't buy House of Wolves.

In a statement, Bungie COO Pete Parsons points out that House of Wolves represents the seventeenth Destiny update that's been released in the eight months since the game launched in September 2014.

See below for a quick rundown of what's included with House of Wolves. For lots more, be sure to check out GameSpot's in-depth roundup of everything you need to know.

You can buy House of Wolves by itself for $20, or through the $35 Destiny Expansion Pass, which also includes The Dark Below.

House of Wolves won't be Destiny's final update. Bungie will continue to support Destiny throughout the summer with more content, leading up to the release of another major, unannounced expansion this fall. The name of this add-on could be The Taken King, as Bungie trademarked that name recently.

House of Wolves Introduces:

• New co-op arena activity called Prison of Elders
• New multiplayer event called The Trials of Osiris
• New weapons, armor, and gear, including Legendary and Exotic items
• Level increase to light level 34
• New story missions and quests
• New social space called The Reef
• New Strike called The Shadow Thief
• Four new competitive multiplayer maps: Black Shield, Thieves' Den, Widow's Court, and Timekeeper. This map is exclusive to PlayStation platforms through (at least) fall 2015.
