Meanwhile, at the Gamescom 2016, developer Bungie also presented a video documentary of Rise of Iron Expansion with a head that reads Forged in Fire. The event attendees were all surprised with the depth of the game and the video quality that looks promising. Bungie managed to hook the gamers albeit these changes were announced before.

The best bet is its inclusion in the expansion pack rather than a tag along in the Wrath of Machine.

There is no information yet regarding the update pack and its release date. However, the developer hinted that the download servers will synchronized with the Rise of Iron release.
To wrap up, Bungie clarified that the Expansion pack is out on September 20 (Wrath of Machine on September 23) and will be available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox.
