Destiny is the most preordered franchise debut in gaming history — and it makes sense

Apparently, a lot of you have plans to pick up a new game tomorrow.

Publisher Activision, which is distributing Bungie’s Destiny, revealed today that the sci-fi shooter is the most preordered franchise debut ever. While established brands like Call of Duty or Assassin’s Creed may have had higher preorders for their latest releases, no new intellectual property has had more gamers plunking down their cash ahead of release than Bungie’s mulitplayer online title. Destiny launches for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 tomorrow, and Activision has it primed to reach blockbuster status.
