So yeah, not demanding at all. Besides the growing size requirement of PC games, it appears I won't need to upgrade anything to play Destiny 2. And if the beta was an accurate indication, it's going to run excellently on most hardware too.

The update details the exact moment you'll be able to play Destiny 2, depending on which timezone you reside in. Here's a handy chart:

Also of note: If you've been paying attention to the Destiny 2 console launch, is that criticism of the endgame's content (and lack thereof) has been a hot button issue among Destiny 2 players. Bungie community manager DeeJ addressed the issue direct at the end up the update, indicating the the team is aware of the heated discussion and will have more to say soon.

Rest assured we'll have plenty to say on those subjects when Destiny 2 lands on PC on October 24, so expect a slew of refined, impassioned takes on the economy of shiny guns and space fashion soon.
