Destiny Update Bug Discovered, Impact on House of Wolves Release Unclear

With just a few more days to go before Destiny's next expansion, House of Wolves, arrives on May 19, developer Bungie has discovered a "late-breaking technical" issue related to update 1.2.0. It remains to be seen if this issue will impact House of Wolves' scheduled release next week.

"I've spoken with the finest minds at Bungie about Update 1.2.0 just moments ago. They're working to correct a late-breaking technical issue that would have impacted the way the game launches for a large portion of you," Bungie community manager David "Deej" Dague said in a post on Bungie's website.

"Progress is being made."

Update 1.2.0 was released last week, but it won't be activated until later. The update features a long list of changes including major tweaks to Commendations and more.

Dague went on to pledge that he'll update the community every day until the issue is sorted out.

"We'll be sharing new details on the deployment schedule that leads to House of Wolves as soon as they become facts," he explained. "At the very least, you'll hear from me once a day about this. Hang in there, and thank you for your patience."
