Bungie’s first live Destiny 2 event has Guardians watching The Almighty explode

Bungie decided to end this season of Destiny 2 with a bang, setting up a big live event that players had to gather at The Tower for. The event just came to an end after a very lengthy wait, bringing The Almighty crashing down onto Earth's surface. 

The Almighty was on a collision course with The Last City, meaning guardians needed to seek help from Rasputin to stop it before humanity gets wiped out. That help came in the form of Rasputin, which launched a series of lasers/missiles at The Almighty to blow it up.

You can see screenshots from during the event above. The projectiles started inching closer towards The Almighty at around 6:15PM BST, it then took another 75 minutes for the ship to start fully detonating and then crashing towards Earth, narrowly missing The Tower on its way down.

This was the final step in Bungie's teasers for the next big Destiny 2 stream on June 9th. On that day, it is widely expected that the next major expansion will be announced.

KitGuru Says: As cool as it was to be involved and see so many players actually using the in-game text chat for a change, it did not need to be an hour and a half long. Still, it is great to see Bungie pull something like this off and should be a sign of things to come for future key story moments during seasons.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
