Destiny Rising fans finally have a date for the first Closed Beta Test and App Store pre-orders, with more details coming later this week.

It’s been a long wait for Destiny fans eager to get their hands on Destiny Rising, but the silence is finally over. After teasing new content at the NetEase 520 Conference, the team has now revealed two major updates: the first Closed Beta Test for Destiny Rising is officially on the way, and App Store pre-orders are about to open up.

The excitement kicked off last week when the dev team officially announced a new reveal for the game coming soon. Now, earlier today, NetEase showcased a new Destiny Rising trailer during its big 520 event. This latest look at the mobile spin-off gave us our first official look at dual-wielding weapons (akimbo sidearms), full voice lines for several characters, and even a few new faces that fans haven’t seen before.
