Launched in September, Destiny 2 is the best-selling console game year-to-date in the U.S.2 Digital mix was over 50% of console full game sell-through, a new record for the company. In October, we introduced the Destiny franchise to PC gamers on Blizzard's Battle.net® platform, opening the franchise to new global audiences and future growth opportunities.

Activision and Bungie's Destiny 2 is well ahead of the highly engaging original Destiny on time spent per player and attach rate to the Expansion Pass.

With the launch of the game on PC, Destiny 2 is now ahead of the original game in consumer spend.

We mocked the thought of games even being 30% digital at the start of the gen.

Times have changed.

Yeah anymore I pretty much go all digital now that I have 3TB of storage

A game like Destiny it might make more sense  to download it.  Even more so if you're hooked on it and don't intend to trade it and the weekly drop in and out style of the game just means youll spend less time inserting the disk.

Well I believe most games are around 30-40% digital... Destiny 2 digital ratio on consoles is a record and it is bigger because this type of game (online only) supports more the digital choice.

That certainly saves a ton of used game shelf space.
