A couple days ago, Bungie announced that they would announce their new ‘shared world shooter’ on Sunday, February 17, 2013. And that is exactly what they did. Jason Jones, co-founder of Bungie and one of the guys behind Halo, was on hand right there to personally announce Bungie’s new huge game himself. -Retrospect Realm
Bungie veteran and current CTO, Luis Villegas, has left the company after fourteen years and has joined Sony PlayStation as its new Head of Technology.
"I feel incredibly lucky because as part of my new role I get to still work closely with my Bungie family."
New role and more pay and still can work closely with Bungie
Bungie - "Join our development team to see the new updates arriving with Destiny 2: The Final Shape. Releasing on June 4, 2024."
Amid ongoing anxiety within Bungie following layoffs last year, the studio is now preparing for another shakeup, this time on Marathon.
Talk about mismanaged Bungie is a studio of tremendous potential and have made some of the greatest shooters to date. Sony pushed them to just make another Destiny style game and consult on other studios live service games and are now getting thrown under a bus as the pivot away from predominantly gaas games is unfolding.
I'd love to see a world where Bungie can focus on telling great sci fi stories again away from a live service dungeon but we all know that's a pipe dream
This studio has had three owners and its never worked well with any of them....Management has issues
Haven't been this amped for a game in a while. bungie seems to be handling this like their baby, and already have a rich history of the game's story and expansions planned. Hope they get what they are aiming for and keep the next 10 yrs fresh
Destiny sounds like it's taking the good elements of other games and combining them. Can't wait to see more.
This is totally Halo with a different style, same concept pretty much. Cant blame them Halo is a master piece.
