The upcoming expansion for Destiny 2 titled The Witch Queen has become one of the most popular pre-order items. Not without cause, this expansion is putting story content front-and-center with a major campaign expansion that will see you in the Throne World of the Witch Queen herself, Savathûn.
The expansion also promises to bring weapon crafting, including the all-new melee weapon type, the Glaive. So, once again, there are a lot of things to be hyped about. The community itself definitely rings this true as it’s been confirmed by developer Bungie that the pre-orders for the Witch Queen expansion have topped over one million.
In a tweet from the official Destiny 2 Twitter, it was announced that the game has already passed the one million pre-orders milestone.
