Destiny 1's Tower Mysteriously Updated with Festive Lights
Seven years after its initial release, Destiny's original Tower social space has received an unexpected and unexplained update, featuring festive lights and decorations. This surprising addition, discovered by players on January 5th, has sparked much speculation within the community.
While Destiny 2 has become Bungie's primary focus since its launch in 2017, the original Destiny remains accessible, and some players still actively visit the Tower. The new decorations bear resemblance to past seasonal events, such as The Dawning, but lack associated quests or in-game notifications, indicating an unintentional activation.
A Forgotten Event?
Theories abound, with many pointing to a cancelled event known as "Days of the Dawning," originally planned for 2016. Reddit users, including Breshi, have highlighted similarities between unused assets from this scrapped event and the current decorations in the Tower. It's speculated that a placeholder future date for removal might have been inadvertently triggered, leading to this unexpected resurgence of festive cheer.
As of now, Bungie has offered no official comment on the situation. This accidental update provides a nostalgic treat for players of the original Destiny, offering a fleeting chance to revisit a familiar space with a festive twist, before it's likely removed by Bungie. The event serves as a reminder of Destiny's legacy and the enduring connection between the game and its dedicated fanbase.
