Some Destiny players are lucky enough to receive exclusive videos from Bungie and Activision which featured some of the new emotes that players will be able to purchase beginning on Oct. 13.
By using the new in-game currency known as 'Silver,' players will be able to purchase 18 new emotes from Tess Everis. Players are even getting some free Silver to help them get started with their purchase.
The new emotes purchasing scheme is just part of the game's cosmetic microtransactions. All of the items that are up for grabs are said to be offered by the Eververse Trading Company.
For now, the plan is solely to sell emotes with the potential to include sparrow skins in the near future. A number of players are fine with the microtransactions feature of the game with some of them even willing to pay extra just to unlock a dance such as The Carlton.
Apart from Carlton, other emotes that players will be allowed to purchase include Bring It On, Come At Me, Full/Formal Bow, Sorrow, Watch Your Back, Blowing A Kiss, Ooh Yeah, Slow Clap, Safe!, Tantrum, Victory Cheer, Evil Hand Rub, Congrats, Coward/Scared, Baseball Swing, Carlton, Fist Pump, and Give Me A Break.
"These will only ever be cosmetics so you won't be buying things like Gear, or Weapons, or Power, or Light or anything of that. You would buy things that could just make your character look cooler," said in the voice-over of the video from Destiny YouTuber Arekkz Gaming.
According to the video, different sets of emotes were sent to different Destiny players. Destiny YouTuber DattoDoesDestiny even showed off what he got from the package which was sent by the Eververse Trading Company. Apart from a preview of the emotes, he also got a letter, some postcards, and a couple of silver.
Players can actually buy silver with real money. There's no information yet however, on how much silver they would need in purchasing an emote.
Another Destiny YouTuber known only as PlanetDestiny showed a glimpse of the letter's content.
"Eververse is a new venture I have founded with my uncle, the Guardian Fenchurch Everis, to bring the finest in goods and services to Guardians throughout the known universe. Enclosed with this missive are communications from my uncle. While he can be... exuberant, he is renowned as a collector of curiosities and treasures. I could not do this without him. Directions for accessing a special preview of Eververse will be sent to you in an electronic communication. Please join me in the Tower for this event," said one part of the letter which is signed by Tess Everis.
