Destiny was awarded the Best Game Award at 2022's British Academy Games Awards, part of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts.

Destiny seems to be a blockbuster success. It'southward earned both stunning praise from some reviewers and a big portion of the fan base of operations as well equally having been nominated, or having actually won, a total of 291 industry awards. They can now add change that "Nominee" box to read "Winner". Among the other nominees include Mario Kart 8, Shadow of Mordor, Dragon Age: Inquisition and Conflicting: Isolation. Perhaps its was the destiny of Destiny to win such a prestigious honor.

Bungie'due south president, Harold Ryan, was at that place to accept the laurels and said that it was the fans that truly drove them to winning the award.

Destiny the game is also certainly not letting upwards when information technology comes to new content. They've been able to add new raids and are even looking to expand the Vault operations to brand information technology larger. Destiny, and so, is only just beginning to build steam. More content is always ever on the way every bit they continue to try to meliorate their IP. Bungie really is investing a lot of fourth dimension and money into their new game.
