Prior to the official release of '' Destiny '' in September 2014 , Bungie declared that a major component of the game would be a continuous release of new content . Bungie Director of Production Jonty Barnes said : " We 're going to continuously update the game from now until the end of time . That 's always going to be part of the philosophy of '' Destiny '' . We always wanted to build a new universe but keep building upon it , rather than to do a complete and utter restart periodically . " By the time of '' Destiny '' s launch , two planned packs of downloadable content ( DLC ) had been officially announced : '' The Dark Below '' and '' House of Wolves '' . From the launch of '' Destiny '' , players could purchase the '' Destiny Expansion Pass '' , which included the first two expansions at a discounted price versus buying them separately . Players also received an exclusive sparrow ( EV-30 Tumbler ) if they purchased the '' Expansion Pass '' or '' The Dark Below '' by January 15 , 2015 . At E3 2015 , Bungie officially announced a new expansion called '' The Taken King '' . A new , large expansion was confirmed in February 2016 ; its title , '' Rise of Iron '' , was revealed in June 2016
