Happy Xursday, everyone! We’re coming up on the release of House of Wolves, which means these weekly updates should become a bit more interesting.

The content, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg said, is being designed to appeal to not only fans of the series, but people who have never even Destiny power leveling.

Destiny is getting a new weapon type, sidearms, developer Bungie announced during today's Prison of the Elders livestream. Siderarms will act as secondary weapons that add elemental damage and a very high rate of fire.

Last week, Bungie revealed details about The Reef, Destiny's new social space in the upcoming House of Wolves expansion. As part of this week's continuation of coverage, the developer discussed additions coming to Destiny's PvP during a livestream presentation today.
