Destiny character names will be tied to PSN IDs and Gamertags

Changing your character name in Bungie’s Destiny will require that you change your PlayStation Network ID or Xbox Gamertag, the developer revealed today.

The topic was addressed in the studio’s newest Q&A. “You are your character in Destiny,” Bungie said. “In your case, your Guardian will be [name of question’s poster]. If you want your name to be more colorful or personal (i.e. NinjaSniper420, Titan Nick, Rober Paulson) you need to change your identity at the source.

“Our hope is that you have an identity in the game that’s meaningful to you, and that new friends can track you from your favorite Destiny forum to a rendezvous in orbit over your favorite destination.”
