A Festive Surprise: Unexpected Decorations Appear in Destiny 1's Tower
Seven years after its initial release, Destiny 1's Tower has received a mysterious update, adorned with lights and festive decorations. This unexpected addition has captivated players, sparking speculation and wonder. The original Destiny, while still accessible, largely ceded its spotlight to Destiny 2 in 2017.
Despite Destiny 2's ongoing success and numerous updates, nostalgia for the original game persists. Bungie continues to integrate legacy content into the sequel, including popular raids and exotic weapons. However, this recent Tower update is entirely unexpected, appearing without announcement or fanfare.
On January 5th, players began reporting unusual decorations within the Tower social space. Ghost-shaped lights, reminiscent of past seasonal events like The Dawning, were observed. However, unlike previous events, there was no snow, and the banners differed. Crucially, no new quests or in-game messages accompanied the decorations.
A Forgotten Event?
The lack of official explanation from Bungie has fueled fan theories. Reddit users, including Breshi, pointed to a cancelled event, "Days of the Dawning," originally planned for 2016. Unused assets from this scrapped event bear a striking resemblance to the current Tower decorations. This suggests a possible explanation: a placeholder date in the future, long after the event's cancellation, leading to its unexpected reappearance.
As of this writing, Bungie remains silent on the matter. The year 2017 marked a significant shift for the franchise, with all live events transitioning to Destiny 2. This accidental update, therefore, offers a fleeting moment of nostalgic joy for players before Bungie likely removes it. Enjoy the surprise while it lasts!
