Weekend Console Download Deals for Aug. 25: The future of Destiny 2

It's been an exciting week for Destiny 2 players. With new raids and a new expansion on the way, there's plenty to do, but there's also plenty to catch up with for those who haven't been around a while. Those interested in catching up can do so by picking up some of the previous Destiny 2 expansions. Lightfall, specifically, is half off right now on Xbox and PlayStation.

Elsewhere, Xbox's ID@Xbox Hits sale continues, as does PlayStation's August Savings sale. Nintendo has finished up its big sales, but you can still find a few interesting titles on sale, including 2023 breakout hit Dredge.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
