Bungies new IP: Destiny, not to be confused by its predecessor Halo. Is about a group of physically/mentally enhanced super soldiers that have to fight off a diverse threat. The background is Humanity expanded making colonies until they met a cataclysmic event. Now you fight off diverse array of aliens working for the destruction of the last stronghold of humanity, slowly encroaching over human colonies. And there is a strange enigmatic higher alien species surrounded with awe and mystery whom you're not sure of the side of, but leave gigantic alien artifacts/weapons lying around.
Not to be confused with Halo.
Halo had flood.
Destiny doesn't.
Maybe.

[quote]slowly encroaching over human colonies[/quote] Well, according to all we know, there's no "slowly" about it. We're all but extinct. Destiny is about pushing out from near extinction. They's already got everything, and it happened pretty quickly.
