No, it definitely wasn't an April Fools. Sony revealed exotic Destiny sniper rifle Zen Meteor on Friday which will be exclusive to PlayStation players. It'll arrive with the rest of the 2.2.0 update on April 12 alongside easier infusion and customisable shiny Chroma armour.

Guardians, meet Zen Meteor, a new PlayStation-exclusive Exotic sniper rifle coming to @DestinyTheGame on April 12. pic.twitter.com/tZ122g3WGaApril 1, 2016

Zen Meteor looks suitably flamey in action but we don't know much about the weapon other than the fact that we already want it. There's no news yet as to when this will arrive on Xbox. The previous PlayStation exclusive hand cannon, Hawk Moon, took a full year to come to Microsoft's console. You can find out more about Destiny's biggest update since the Taken King in the video below.
