Halloween updates in games are very common, now that the season is fast rolling in. “Destiny” is not exempted from all the spooky merriment, and the atmosphere in the game as well as Tess Everis are celebrating in style.

Three new emotes are up for grabs via the Eververse Trading Co. The cheapest of the three is the “Boo” emote, which is sold for 300 Silver, Game Informer reported. The other two will cost more, with the Monster Dance running at 500 Silver and the Zombie Dance in lieu of the infamous “Thriller” video will be up for 700 Silver.

Before purchasing the emotes, especially the most expensive Zombie Dance, “Destiny” players on the PS3 and Xbox 360 may want to take a word of caution. According to GameZone, the dance emote will not be available on last-gen consoles.

Other purchasable goodies in the store include the Treasures of the Lost bags. Players can choose from three options, 200 Silver being the cheapest and 900 Silver being the most expensive. Some of the content that players can get with the Treasures of the Lost bags include Paper Glue, Jackolyte, Flight of Shadows, Skull Mask, Random Festival Candy and Paper Scraps. One random Legendary Mask is guaranteed for the bag for the 900 Silver variety.

For those who have yet to familiarise themselves with the new currency in “Destiny,” Silver can be bought with real money. This is the currency that can be used in the game to buy items via the Eververse Trading Co.

Bungie has also promised before that it will not be selling the ability or more drops in the King’s Fall Raid via its new microtransactions. This will avoid the game having a pay-to-win approach.

The developer has been planning a lot for “Destiny,” and had even taken care to hide some things from fans who may be planning to mine them. Speaking to Express, Bungie’s Jacob Benton revealed that they are monitoring how fans are finding the quests in “Destiny” and have taken that into consideration.

“This time we have gone to some special lengths to hide things from the databases that people usually look at and so there are some things that people don’t know about,” said Benton to Express.

Recently, “Destiny” fans have actively anticipated and followed the Sleeper Simulant and The First Curse weapon quests. These quests have gathered notoriety in the community, as players continued to post findings for other Guardians to test out.
