Game developers Bungie have this week unveiled new details about their upcoming and highly anticipated Destiny Iron Banner 2.0 that will build o and tweak the initial Iron Banner offering that caused a few issues with higher player characters.
The Iron Banner with Destiny 2.0 will be accompanied with a beta voice channel shared by players you meet within the games Matchmaking service and will be included in the new updated that will be rolling out next week on Monday, November 17th.
With the Iron Banner 2.0 update Bungie explains :
“Lord Saladin is poised for a return to the Tower. This time, his reappearance will be intentional. After a surprise ambush during what was supposed to be his sabbatical, we sent him packing again. More work was left to be done to realize his new potential.
Some of that work happened today during a planned maintenance window. If the next Destiny Updates stick their landing, we’ll light his shield again very soon. You’ll be invited to approach his altar of war and glory by the end of next week, if all goes well.”
