Interesting information has been leaked by a popular "Destiny" tipster Geno about the much-awaited sequel "Destiny 2."

This alleged information has ignited yet another hype between the fans of the original video game and its developer, Bungie. The game's publisher Activision has already confirmed the development of the new game and suggested the idea for a 2017 release. However, the company added that the game's announcement will happen during the Holiday season of 2016.

Geno is known to be a reliable source when it comes to video game releases. The tipster's past predictions on current video game developments were pretty spot on. Recent leaks include the announcement of the much awaited "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon," which proved to be true.

The interesting part about the current leaks is that Bungie's community manager, Eric Osborne, recently released a response to the circulating rumor. "After a few fun years in the industry, I am well Beyond rumor and speculation. I wish you were 2!" Osborne wrote on Twitter.

Fans must be thrilled to know this new information on "Destiny" coming from a popular tipster who had provided accurate leaks. However, they must understand that these are merely just rumors. Until the company issues an official announcement, Geno's leaked materials must be taken with a pinch of salt.

While several reports are stating that "Destiny 2" will be released sometime this year, Activision has confirmed that the new game will not arrive until 2017, but an expansion is set to be released this year. Details about this said expansion have been scarce, but it is expected that fans would want newer features to be added to the next installment.
