In just under 12 hours (and even less for those on the East Coast), Bungie’s highly-anticipated Destiny will be released simultaneously on PS4, PS3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360. The unprecedented launch is expected to serve up millions of games in the first 24 hours from the mega sci-fi fantasy that’s expected to be part of a 10 year journey. To help ensure the smoothest experience possible, Bungie will be releasing a Destiny day one patch that contains a number of changes. According to Bungie, the Destiny 1.01 patch will bring with it tweaks to”Weapons, Builds, Talents, Maps, Activities, Achievements, Progression, game stability and UI.’
