Destiny 2 PC COUNTDOWN: Release date, unlock time, system specs, Raid roadmap, price

2’s PC release date is almost here, although UK fans will have to wait a little longer to start playing.

Destiny 2 may have an October 24 release date on PC, but the bad news for UK fans is that Bungie won’t be unlocking the game at midnight.

Instead, Destiny 2 has been given a 10am PT unlock time on PC, which means UK fans will have to wait until 6pm BST to start playing.

This is when the Destiny 2 will be unlocked on Battle.net, where the game is available for £44.99 for the standard edition.

Tesco is selling Destiny 2 for the low price of £40, followed by Argos and Amazon, where it costs £41.99.

The definitive version of Destiny 2, the PC edition features 4K support, an uncapped frame rate, mouse and keyboard controls, custom key mapping, triple monitor support and HDR.

Like Xbox One and PS4, players have a week to tackle the core game and Crucible multiplayer, before Bungie releases new endgame content.

The launch edition does, however, come with Nightfall Normal and Prestige mode, as well as Nightfall Guided Games.

This will be followed by the release of the Leviathan Raid on November 1 and the first ever PC Trials of the Nine on November 3.

The roadmap continues with the launch of the . Raid Guided Games also begins on this date.

Guided Games is a new feature in which clans can help a solo player experience endgame content like Raids.

Endgame activities typically require teams of four or six, which is tricky if none of your friends are playing.

PC owners will also need to think about specs and system requirements and whether their machines can run it.

Fortunately, Destiny 2 is described as “extremely scalable”, which means that new and old PCs should be able to handle it. The Destiny 2 PC system requirements can be found below.
