2 As Destiny 2 ends, ex-Bungie dev says supporting Marathon will help keep the studio afloat. In the wake of Destiny 2's end, developer Bungie will reportedly go through "significant" layoffs. Fans have rallied to push Bungie and Sony — which acquired the developer in 2022 — to greenlight the creation of a Destiny 3, with a Change.org petition for a sequel reaching nearly 400,000 signatures and player numbers skyrocketing for Monument of Triumph . Windows Central is the main source layer for now, and the rest should be read as a signal that is still widening. On the device side, the useful angle is whether a technical change actually alters feel, lifespan, or upgrade cost in real use.
