In a look at what's to come for Destiny, Bungie has revealed the first details about "Destiny's first full sequel," including what progression from the original game players will be able to carry over.
A new blog post on Bungie.net reveals that power, possessions, and Eververse-related items and currency from the first Destiny will not carry over to the sequel (they will still be available in the original Destiny, though). However, Bungie will "preserve" character customization from the first game for any players who have reached a certain point in Destiny 1.
"Specifically, the class, race, gender, face, hair, and marking selections for all characters that have achieved Level 20 and completed the Black Garden story mission will carry forward," the post reads. "We also plan to award those veteran accounts with honors that reflect your Destiny 1 accomplishments."
The post goes on to say Bungie will be sharing more details later this year about "how we will honor your legacy in the future," but that these decisions allows the developer "to introduce the major advancements and improvements that all of us expect from a sequel, ensuring it will be the best game we can create, unencumbered by the past."
Earlier this year during Activision’s fourth quarter 2016 earnings, Activision clarified that a “full Destiny sequel” would be coming this year after previously confirming in 2016 that the sequel was set for a 2017 release. Activision’s Eric Hirshberg also said at the time that the “majority of the team at Bungie” was working on Destiny 2, which is rumored to be coming to PC too, as of summer 2016.
Late last year, Activision-owned studio Vicarious Visions revealed it is now working in collaboration with Bungie to work on the Destiny franchise.
Bungie recently released over 50 pieces of concept art from Destiny and recently registered a trademark in the United States for “DestinyCon.”
