A new chapter in the Destiny saga is about to arrive, but it is coming in an unexpected form. Destiny: Rising is a new game that will let us take the sci-fi action RPG we know and love on the go as a new free-to-play mobile experience.
Developed by NetEase Games, with full blessing from Bungie, this isn’t a port or cheap mobile knock-off game but a fully-featured Destiny experience. Acting as a prequel and alternate history to the games, Destiny: Rising promises all the PvE and PvP action we expect from the mainline titles. If you’re a little skeptical that it can be done, you’re not alone. While there’s no release date for the game quite yet, you can still test it out early to see if Destiny: Rising can live up to Bungie’s standards by applying for the upcoming alpha test. Here is how to sign up for a chance to participate.
How to join the Destiny: Rising alpha test
To join the Destiny: Rising alpha test you need to visit the official website here and select the Pre-register button.
From here, simply fill out the form with your mobile device information, region, and email address. NetEase recommends you have an Android running Snapdragon 845 or newer or an iPhone 8 or newer for the best performance. After that, all you can do is wait to hear if you are selected.
The Destiny: Rising alpha test is scheduled to begin on November 1, with no end date currently announced. All players who pre-register will be entered into a pool, and an unknown number of participants will be selected at random to join the alpha and will be contacted via email. There’s no advantage to registering early, but we don’t know when registration will close or when participants will be drawn, so it would be safer to do it sooner rather than later.
