Destiny 2 Has Already Reached 1.2 Million Concurrent Players
Destiny 2 released just a few days ago, and it's already receiving massive success. Bungie tweeted earlier today that its popular shooter has already reached 1.2 million concurrent players on Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
Keep in mind that this doesn't count the total number of players, but instead the amount of players online at once. You can view Bungie's tweet below which thanks the fans and announces the news.
Thank you all so much for playing, Guardians! Right now Destiny 2 has over 1.2 Million concurrent players online. We'll see you in the wild.

Our Take
This is a huge milestone, but hardly a surprising one. Have you been playing Destiny 2? Let us know your thoughts and how it compares to its predecessor below.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
