Destiny's beta is down today for maintenance, but it's coming back soon

The beta test for developer Bungie’s sci-fi shooter Destiny is over … for now.

The studio is taking the game offline for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 today as part of two days of scheduled maintenance. Bungie will hit their servers with hammers, maybe update some code, and check their negative power coupling with a hydrospanner. When it’s done, it will relaunch the beta test on Wednesday. At that time, the Xbox One and Xbox 360 beta will join the PlayStation versions, and players on all supported platforms will get to go online and shoot alien scum. The beta runs through 11:59 p.m. Pacific on Sunday.
