Some other details on Destiny 2’s PC launch
No cross save or cross play feature
it had been confirmed by Bungie that there will be no cross play or cross saves between the console and PC version of Bungie’s FPS. Characters between the two will not be transferred between the two and a new character will need to be started on each platform.
No character transfer from the original Destiny
As with Destiny 2 on the console, the PC version will not allow players to transfer characters from the original Destiny. This gives everyone an even playing field to start from giving new players to the Destiny series a fair chance against so of the more experienced players.
Destiny 2 on console has already been a huge success and we can’t imagine that the PC version will be any different, having the added bonus of performance and visuals it has to be the best way to play Destiny and we can’t wait!
