Destiny's Eververse Trading Company brings microtransactions to the game

Bungie's sci-fi shooter Destiny is set to offer microtransactions through a storefront called Eververse Trading Company. The game will receive an update on October 13 that will re-introduce Tess Everis, who will return to the Tower to run the storefront.

From Bungie:

This coming Tuesday, October 13th, Tess Everis will return to The Tower with a new look, a new storefront, and some new items to sell, courtesy of Eververse Trading Company. Initially, Tess will offer eighteen brand new emotes. Like the trio of emotes offered via The Taken King Collector's Edition, these emotes are completely optional, and won't impact the action game in any way.

You'll be able to trade "silver," the new in-game currency, for emotes. The currency itself has to be purchased from the console's marketplace (Xbox Live or PlayStation Network), with Bungie mentioning that pricing information will be revealed next week. All players will receive free silver once the patch hits, allowing them to test out the microtransactions.
