The Taken King, formerly known as The Comet, is the 3rd and largest expansion for Destiny. The Taken King marks the end of Year 1 and the start of Year 2 of Destiny. It is scheduled to release on September 15, 2015. Unlike previous expansions, The Taken King will come in disc-form, similar to vanilla Destiny.

Additionally, The Taken King will add 2 new types of weapons and a new Patrol location on a Hive ship called The Dreadnaught.
The story is about Oryx, The Taken King looking to to avenge the death of his son, Crota. Players will battle Oryx and his army, The Taken.
