Today, Sony detailed Destiny's PlayStation-exclusive content in a PlayStation Blog post. PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 owners of Destiny will receive a multiplayer map, a Strike mission, three sets of armor, two weapons, and three spacecraft.

The mid-sized multiplayer map is called "Exodus Blue" and is built for Control, Destiny's version of Domination. According to Destiny's developer, Bungie, "the Exodus Blue, a long-dead vessel, once brought hope and humanity to worlds beyond Earth. Here, Guardians challenge one another, forging a new hope and future in the fires of the Crucible."

PlayStation owners will also be able to play through a three-player co-op mission on Mars called "The Dust Palace Strike." According to the blog post, "You'll track a Cabal extraction team through the husks of an ancient human skyscraper, the Dust Palace, buried in the shifting dunes of Mars and face a new enemy, the Psion Flayers."

Three sets of armor and two weapons will be exclusive, as well. In addition to the Monte Carlo assault rifle and Hawkmoon handcannon, Manifold Seeker armor for Warlocks, Vanir armor for Titans, and Argus armor for Hunters will be available.

Finally, PlayStation owners will have exclusive access to three spacecraft: the Aurora Wake, the Crypt Hammer, and the Outrageous Fortune. According to Bungie, the Aurora Wake has "ahull lined with arcane instruments, crafted by a circle of Warlocks – gifting the ship with a preternatural sense for the strange." The Crypt Hammer is "a deep-strike insertion variant, built to carry Guardians safely through contested space." The Outrageous Fortune is "A rugged, versatile explorer for those ready to gamble everything in search of ancient secrets and alien power."

GameSpot editors played a lot of the Destiny alpha and liked their time with it. You can read our impressions of the game here.

Destiny is due out on September 9 on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, and PS3.

im really hating these timed exclusives thing from both microsoft and sony.


its getting ridiculous. seems like every multiplat game has some sort of timed exclusive to which ever company shoves enough money in their face.


its bad for all gamers in general but at the end of the day its just business for them.

<< LINK REMOVED >> I hate exclusives, consoles should just die out and everything PC. Not because PC is the master race, because PC is more powerful then consoles and has no competition. Then we would just have CoD vs BF wars.

<< LINK REMOVED >> They haven't confirmed 60fps on ps4. Maybe it will be, maybe it won't be. Halo 5 has been confirmed at 1080p/60fps so I don't know why Destiny isn't.

@DVONvX @memenotu This is an MMO with a lot more players on screen than Halo. I suppose they preferred to lock it at 30 fps instead of having it jump all over the place when there is too much happening on screen. In the main town alone i saw more players and computer controlled characters around than a Halo match

<< LINK REMOVED >> Ya, Halo hasn't been touched by Bungie since Halo3. Imo, after Halo 3 the series hasn't been the same(its Halo but like a book series now written by another author).


Xbox can have games at 1080p and 60fps but at the cost of what?. Hardware limits things, this is why PC is always going on about itself cause it can upgrade while consoles cannot.

I'm thinking Destiny will be 1080p and 60fps on PS4, Xbox might have slightly reduced resolution and 60fps. I would drop to 720p for 60fps for PS4.

The alpha has already been tested. The game runs at 60fps with drop offs during high action, never getting as low as 30fps.


So, even during action the PS4 version will run better than the One.

I had this pre-ordered for PS4 but after seeing this exclusive content is timed and that the game will run at 1080p on X1 I changed my pre-order, way more friends on X1 to play with. Hope i still get a beta code.

<< LINK REMOVED >> I agree, I would feel like I missed out on something. We buy the game, but are still screwed by this exclusive BS. But, I'm not even sure if this is coming to the PC. I expect a lot from Bungie, so the hype train is really building up.

<< LINK REMOVED >> ya this blows. but really the only way us gamers can stop this sort of thing is if enough revolt and refuse to buy games that come with these sort of "exclusive content"


which will never happen.

That seems like a little too much exclusive content for one brand of consoles. Any chance we can but that stuff on the Xbox One eventually?

Exclusive content means you're never gonna get the complete game. Even if you buy both versions you still can't transfer content from one to the other. I hate things like this.

Each platform has its own exclusivity deals, this is no different. If it matters that much to some, just buy a PS4.

Relax- xbox gets the same content, just later it's timed exclusive, meaning ps just gets it a little earlier. See here: << LINK REMOVED >>

I do not understand why this is such an issue. It is not like the PS4 players will have a advantage over Xbox players. They are on separate game severs. So they get 3 guns out of the millions possible. Oh no. So each class gets a special armor, out of the millions of armor customization possible. One multi-player map... oh gawd.... that is just too inconceivable.

Not sure what xbox owners are upset about. We knew all this before the XB1 even came out. We knew PS4 was the lead platform, we knew PS4 would get early/extended beta, and we knew PS4 was getting exclusive content. If this game was that important to you, then you should have got a PS4.
