Hey all, it looks like my time at Bungie is over for now. Iโm glad Iโve been able to stay with Destiny until the end. Iโm proud of the work Iโve done, and I never thought I would get to make things that last in the Destiny universe. See ya, Guardians!
Basically the whole D2 Sandbox team is gone, myself included.
The good news is if you liked the way Destiny felt to shoot and play, thereโs going to be a lot of great designers in the market looking to help other games step it up.
Thank you to everyone signing in to join us for Monument of Triumph.
We've seen quite a few fireteams reuniting, groups memorizing Pantheon patterns to prep for Saturday's gauntlet, and many asking for clues about [REDACTED].
Those nailbiter SRL finishes? And the drip with all this new armor?
What a wild day so far.
Keep it up.
Overall view:
- Destiny 2 probably should have ended with Final Shape with Destiny 3 already incubating
- If Destiny 2 was going to keep existing, it shouldn't have been what we got, which was badly handled
- Marathon siphoned a ton of resources and there is no disputing that

For almost twelve years, we have had the joy and honor to explore the Destiny universe with you all. Through all the ups and downs, surprises and triumphs, building Destiny alongside our players has been a monumental privilege. While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2.
As our focus turns towards a new beginning for Bungie, we will begin work incubating our next games. To that end, on June 9, 2026, we will release the final live-service content update for Destiny 2 to begin that new journey as a studio.
Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today. Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to.
Weโre proud of Destiny 2, the places it took us, and the legacy it has created. Because of you all, our universe is vast, built on years of shared stories, adventures, and victories. From the Cosmodrome to the Pale Heart to the Lawless Frontier, we have forged life-long memories and friendships with you all.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made that journey with us.
From the deepest part of our hearts, thank you, and we'll see you in the stars.
