Bungie has released a new trailer showing off how sci-fi shooter Destiny 2 will play when it comes to PC.

Destiny 2 isn’t coming to PC until October 24, 2017, almost two months after its console release, but to tide you over, you’ll be able to access the open beta running from August 28, 2017 for pre-orderers, or from August 29 - August 31, 2017.

Like the console beta, PC players will be able to play the opening Homecoming mission (wherein our beloved dance-party venue, The Tower, is under siege from the Cabal), sample one of the new Strikes, and give both ranked and Quickplay multiplayer matches - called The Crucible - a go.

The PC release of the sci-fi first-person-shooter will have a scaleable uncapped framerate, and be playable in 4K.

Bungie has made some tweaks to the gameplay since the beta ended on consoles, including boosting the length of some modes in order to ensure Guardians get to use their Super abilities.

Destiny 2 is coming to PS4 and Xbox One on September 6, 2017, and to October 24, 2017 and omg I CANNOT WAIT!
