Although Rise Of Iron's story campaign comprises some quite exciting and intense missions, it's really short and only takes a few hours to burn through.

An excellent expansion to Destiny, but it doesn't have the same lasting impact on the game as The Taken King did. This DLC gets to focus on weaving a new story that delves into the game's lore, providing hours of new content for the game's fans to play time and again.

Destiny has evolved in so many ways since it's release. It still boasts some of the best combat mechanics around in a game that moves both horizontal and vertically across engagement ranges. With two years worth of content behind it already there is a wealth of gaming for the uninitiated; and with a decent endgame, variety in play styles, and a dynamic and active community, there's still enough in the Rise of Iron expansion to keep year one diehards happy. Shame about the story though. I really hope Bungie can figure out that crucial element before Destiny 2. But until that day comes, Rise of Iron does set the scene to keep a massive community playing through this next stage until what will likely be the reboot into the inevitable sequel.

There's enough new content stuffed into this expansion to warrant a purchase, especially if you play both PvE and PvP. Even for a player like myself, who tends to only play the co-op stuff, the adventure is well worth experiencing. I anticipate playing Destiny for a very long time to come.
