Destiny: Rise of Iron Overview

Destiny ROI

Destiny: Rise of Iron is the next expansion in the Destiny universe coming one year after The Taken King expansion last September. Rise of Iron (ROI) is the fourth expansion coming to Destiny. It follows a familiar face, Lord Saladin, and the history of the fallen Iron Lords.

Lord Saladin

Lord Saladin is the orchestrator of the Iron Banner competitive event that appears once a month for a solid week and the star of this story. Lord Saladin wanted only the best to participate in the Iron Banner (IB) so they could be ready for the Darkness that was looming out in the cosmos. After many successful events, Lord Saladin is ready to mount the charge to take back the mantle of Iron Lords and bestow it upon all who aid him in his quest to destroy an ancient evil that has resurfaced due to the curiosity of the Fallen.
