Gritty environments provide a nice contrast to the glossy sci-fi sheen that defined ’s visual language in our earliest looks at the game.There’s a lot more on deck for ’s first year including new maps and events.Bungie also plans to release more shells, which are akin to character classes that can be customized by changing your loadout.The Rook shell, for instance, is a new one that the studio has added since the alpha playtests.
This shell allows you to join a run that's already in progress.You’ll have a limited loadout, but you’re not really risking anything valuable as you run around to loot items.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThere’s a lot riding on .Parent company Sony Interactive Entertainment said last month that had not lived up to its expectations and it wrote down the value of Bungie’s assets by $204 million.
Back in August, Sony asserted more control over Bungie and said the developer was “shifting into a role that is becoming more part of PlayStation Studios.”That’s hardly the only issue Bungie has faced this year.The studio admitted in May that one of its former employees plagiarized the work of artist Fern Hook by enabling it to be used in ’s in-game textures.Earlier this month, Hook said that Bungie and Sony had resolved the matter “to my satisfaction.”
