Free Destiny Beta for XBL Gold and PSN Plus Accounts

140

The Beta has been eye-opening so far. We’ve watched the world of Destiny come to life. Guardians from every platform have arrived at the Tower from their battles in the wild. We have watched your adventures with great interest, and listened to your feedback. Your missions have provided us with volumes of discoveries we can use to prepare for the launch of Destiny in September.

Our work is not done. There is more we can learn. To make this happen, we need more Guardians to play. This is, above all else, a test.

Today, at 4:00 PM PDT, we’re opening the Destiny Beta to anyone who wants to create a character and walk in their boots. There are, of course, some requirements. You’ll need to have a compatible console equipped with PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold. You’ll need to be brave.

Help us deliver the game you deserve. Before we shut this party down, we’ll welcome everyone who wants a preview of this brave new world. If you have yet to play Destiny, look for offers to download the Beta directly from your console later on this afternoon.

If you have played the Beta, please prepare for new arrivals. We know you won’t go easy on them in the Crucible. Show no mercy.

      Free Destiny Beta Download for XBL Gold and Psn Plus Account Holders

    • I might be wrong but people with Xbox Live Gold and Playstation Plus accounts (these are paid accounts) get Destiny (a game) beta for free, no need to preorder the game to get a code.

    • +2

      If you have to ask, then it's not for you.:)

  • lol, started with only access to beta if you have a pre-order and now, everyone :P

  • Does it not end on the 27th??

  • How big are the downloads for each system?

    • close to 11 gig for PS4

    • 12.63GB for the Xbox One version I am downloading it now

    • 12.3 GB download for PS4

      • 13.2GB on PS4 for me

        • That's 3 different reported download sizes for PS4… odd.

  • +3

    Bit lame, they spent 6months hyping the xbox one deal where you preordered to get it on the 24th, just to make it public 1 day later.

    • This is why I've stopped preordering games. They lie so much.

      Also, I got a code through a competition and tried playing it yesterday but it couldn't even connect to the server lol. This was on xbox one

  • 12.63GB, so how long will it finish downloading?

    • +9

      When it says 100% means its finished.

      • If it says 'Play Game' instead of 'Installing' then you're on the right track.

    • +1

      Once it has downloaded 12.63GB, it will be finished downloading.

  • This is great news!

  • Thanks. I'm going to try it out on my PS4 which just came today. I noticed they changed it to "PlayStation Plus is required for some activities on PlayStation platforms", so you might not even need PS+, at least on PS3.

    • It would seem that way, I haven't had psn+ for a while now (if it weren't for blurays the ps3 wouldn't have been switched on at all) and I went to the store and am now downloading the beta.

      5667mb for the ps3 version.

      Will see if I can play it without psn+ as soon as it's completed downloading.

  • Thanx alot op :)

  • so this has totally been off my radar - is this cross-console (and I think it's coming for PC later too) FPS? oh man, that's going to be the fanbois wet dream!

    • By cross platform do you mean ps3/4 and xbox/bone playing together online?

      In that case, no unfortunately.

    You don't need PS+ for the first 5-6 levels on PS4, there's a certain point you get up to where there's level 6 missions, if you try to do them it will say you need PS+. You also don't need PS+ at all on the PS3 version.

    • I'm just playing through on the ps3, and like you said, no psn+ required.
      Level 8 so far, spent a lot of time in free roam just doing be on missions and the random group kills, great fun.

      This game has forced my hand, will get a ps4 on release. :)
