Destiny House of Wolves

Following the trailer that was unveiled yesterday Bungie has released a timeline of when you can expect to learn more about the second DLC for Destiny entitled House of Wolves. Unlike the first DLC that followed closely the Hive that reside on the moon the House of Wolves will instead follow the Queen of the Rift and the Awoken.

The features of the new DLC begin with new upgrade paths for your gear that you've been working hard on. No word yet on what the upgrade to your armor will get you up to but from an image on the blog entry it seems that the new weapon damage cap has been raised to 365 from the 331 from the first DLC. Information of new gear upgrades will be released on the 22nd of April.

After that in terms of game play content there have been two new end game activities that are going to be revealed called Trials of Osiris and the Prison of Elders. No information on what the Trials of Osiris will be but the post explains that the Prison of Elders will be "a new cooperative end game activity focused on variety, replayability and skill" and it is also known that the Prison of Elders will be a 3-player event. Information on the Trials of Osiris will be revealed on the 29th of April and information about the Prison of Elders will be released on the 6th of May.

Lastly Bungie announced that no raid will release with the House of Wolves unlike previously planned but the team is "creating a new Raid for a release later this year". No word yet on whether the Raid will be free, cost money, or be given to those who already purchased prior DLC or the Expansion Pass. Bungie also teases that they have more to show that will be revealed on the 8th of May.

Are you looking forward to the release of the new DLC? Are you looking forward to new game modes or would you have preferred a new raid?
