How to get the Expansion?
This second of the two announced big post-launch DLC Expansions, then you’ll need to buy the Destiny Expansion Pass. This DLC Pass for both Expansions is priced at $34.99, but you can buy them individually as well for $19.99 each (so the Pass gives a $5 discount). Or you may already have it if it comes included in your Destiny Collector’s Edition.
The Destiny Expansion Pass expands the Destiny adventure post-launch with two expansions, which will both include brand new story missions, cooperative activities and competitive multiplayer arenas and a wealth of all new weapons, armor and gear to earn.
Note: If you purchase the Limited, Ghost, or Digital Guardian Edition with the Expansion Pass, do not also purchase the standalone Expansions, as you will be charged for them. – Pricing and release dates may vary by platform.
Destiny Expansion II: House of Wolves will feature the following:
- New weapons, armour and gear to earn, including Legendary and Exotic items.
- Light Level cap expected to be raised to 35 and five additional Bounty slots added.
- New story quests and missions. – One level 20 story mission on Earth is called “Gone To Ground”, where you must “Find a wolf baron and his conspirators who have betrayed the queen and are hiding in the Cosmodrome.” Another two level 20 & 22 missions on Venus are titled “Wolves Harvest”, where you have to “Track down the queen’s traitorous wolves and recover what they’ve stolen from the Awoken.”; and “The Citadel”, where you’ll need “To ascend the top of the Vex stronghold on Venus, assassinate the wolves’ Kell.”
- New co-operative Strike.
- Three more new competitive multiplayer arenas are expected.
- New six-player Raid, titled “The Reef Raid” in the Asteroid Belt.
- PlayStation 3 & 4 platforms will also get access to additional exclusive content for Expansion II, an exclusive co-operative Strike and possibly another exotic weapon, and more. This is timed exclusive content until at least Fall of 2015.
