Destiny’s beta had over 4.6 million players participate

The Destiny beta had 4,638,937 players — and way more Guardians — exploring Old Russia, The Tower, the Crucible and the moon, Activision announced today.

“Hosting a beta at this scale is an incredible feat, so we’re thrilled to see the phenomenal response. But the beta is just a taste of what’s to come,” Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg said.

“This is the biggest beta of this console generation by a wide margin and the largest console beta ever for a new video game IP to date.”

Destiny launches 9 September on PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
