| Destiny's original space zombies revealed by Bungie |
Ever wondered what Bungie's grand visions was for Destiny before the launch of all the DLC actions and final title?
A new range of concept work from the book, The Art of Destiny, shows off some of the earliest designs, including the many looks of The Traveler.
Some cool new shots of The Hive, one of the main enemies for Guardians in the Destiny universe, can be found inside revealing some of the earliest takes on how Bungie wanted to handle the idea of space zombies.
"Covering everything from the earliest sketches of the Guardians' armor to dilapidated cities on distant planets, this exploration of the art behind the year's biggest new gaming franchise details the incredible artistic development of each class, vehicle, and planet," the official description reads.
"With hundreds of stunning sketches, character illustrations, pieces of concept art, environments, and more, The Art of Destiny will explore the game's sweeping world, grand scope, and vibrant visuals."
Other concept work also reveals other grander plans, like the idea of ancient destroyed robots on Mars, as well as the idea that fireteams consisting of three players was also a main game feature.

Progress, however, is being made and it seems the team are pretty pleased with what is being put together so far.
Head of Design and Art at BioWare, Alistair McNally, shared a brief update on how Mass Effect: Andromeda is shaping up.
"Spent today reviewing creative progress on #MassEffectAndromeda," he tweeted.
"I believe it to be the best (and certainly largest) Mass Effect ever, hype."
The Last of Us 2 has had another confirmation moment, without actually being officially confirmed by developers Naughty Dog.
According to Machinima, during a livestream for the Nathan Drake Collection, Josh Scherr, writer for The Last of Us gave fans more hope that the game is indeed on its way.
He spoke about facial animations during the event, revealing that team member Eric Monacelli was involved in the process for the entire Uncharted series, as well as the first Last of Us.
"All the facial animation in the Uncharted series was led by Eric, here. And all the facial animation in all the Uncharted series and the first The Last of Us.
Like all good rumours, The Last of Us 2 was first given life through an employee's LinkedIn page and vague comments made by people from the studio.
Last year for instance, Naughty Dog bosses revealed they were starting to explore ideas for a second game in the Last of Us universe but refused to guarantee another game would happen.
Voice actor Nolan North also told an audience at a Metrocon panel earlier this year that The Last of Us 2 is in development.
Responding to a question on if he was working with Last of Us developer Naughty Dog on anything new, North said: "For now I know they're doing Last of Us 2, but my character in Last of Us kind of met an untimely demise."
