Leaked Destiny 2 poster teases a September release date (Updated)

News
By published

Previous sources have indicated that a PC version is in the works.

Update, March 27: The official Destiny account has tweeted out a logo , as seen above, which nearly matches the logo in the leaked posters. (The spacing of the letters in 'Destiny' is somewhat different.) The exact release date remains unconfirmed, as does the existence of a PC version, though it seems likely. Original story follows.

----------

Kotaku, by way of an Italian retailer, has obtained leaked photos of a Destiny 2 poster which indicates a September 8th release date, at least for Europe, as well as a pre-release beta test.

The report comes from Jason Schreier, who says that the official announcement will be made soon, and who has previously reported that Bungie's MMO shooter is coming to PC this time. That report came following an identical PC rumor posted to NeoGAF. 

Both leaks align with what we heard in Activision's quarterly results conference call in February, during which the company stated that Destiny 2 would be out this year and "broaden the franchise's global reach" despite cutting out last-gen consoles—another hint at a PC version.

Without confirming anything, Bungie's Luke Smith hinted on Twitter that the poster is legitimate. So, trailer soon, then?
