Bungie Is Not Making Destiny 3, Dev to Be Rocked by

Bungie has announced that it will cease ongoing content updates for Destiny 2 starting in June, signaling a strategic shift rather than the launch of a third installment in the franchise.

According to Jason Schreier, the studio lacks a ready‑to‑go successor for the Destiny 2 team; instead, developers are being encouraged to propose and commence fresh concepts, some of which may remain within the Destiny setting, though a direct Destiny 3 is not slated for immediate development.

The upcoming Marathon title is slated to absorb a portion of the Destiny 2 development staff, as Bungie continues to allocate resources to the project; several members have already transitioned, with more expected to follow.

Amid the winding down of Destiny 2, Bungie is preparing another wave of substantial layoffs, the exact headcount still undisclosed, but the Bloomberg report confirms the company intends to cut a significant number of positions as it concludes work on its long‑running online shooter.
