Destiny 2, the first full sequel to the 2014 gaming hit, has revealed its new gameplay for the first time.

The online multiplayer first person shooter’s first trailer shows off a host of new worlds and weapons as the Guardians fight back against the Red Legion after a devastating attack on The Tower, the last safe city on far-future Earth.

The trailer was revealed during a launch event in Los Angeles, where developer Bungie, alongside publisher Activision, detailed some of the big changes being introduced to the game.

Director Luke Smith said Destiny 2 had a simple message, to create “a world I want to be in”.

The game is out on September 8, with plenty more details no doubt expected before then.
