Bungie has just confirmed that PC users can now get the Destiny 2 preload on their computers in anticipation for the game’s release on the 24th of October, next Tuesday.

As long as you’ve got the game pre-ordered and activated on your Blizzard App, the Destiny 2 preload should start automatically. Note: we had to do a Blizzard App update before it began the install.

Your Destiny 2 preload will unlock at 4AM Eastern Australian Standard Time next Tuesday, so it may be worthwhile beginning the 38GB download as soon as possible.

You are one of humanity’s last remaining Guardians. Your home and your power has been taken from you by a brutal invader – Ghaul. With humanity on the brink, it’s up to you to fight back and reclaim our world.

For those that enjoy playing games through Steam, using Steam Link or your Steam Controller, we wrote an article last month with instructions on how to get the game to launch through Steam, which you can read here.

Rocket Chainsaw also reviewed Destiny 2 on PlayStation 4, giving it 4.5 stars and saying that it’s “better in almost every way“.

We’re excited to begin our Destiny 2 journey on PC next week, what guardian will you be playing as? While you wait for the Destiny 2 preload to finish why not let us know in the comments section below.
