Developer Bungie emphasized that they hope to enter the future with the sci-fi series “Destiny”. Even though active development on Destiny 2 has ended, the series is far from shelved — and that’s got fans’ hearts racing.
Marathon hasn’t really been the success they hoped for, which is perhaps why Bungie is now focusing on another brand in particular: Although active development on Destiny 2 has ended, the long-running successful sci-fi series will continue into the future.
“We’re not done with Destiny yet,” the development studio promised. After all, there are “more stories to tell” and “new worlds to build.” To prepare for the future of the series, they are now looking to restore scrapped and deleted content from Destiny 2. For example, old campaigns like Red War as well as planets and raids should leave the vault.
“We recognize that removing this content has a lasting impact on players’ trust and enjoyment of Destiny,” Bungie said in a statement. “Destiny 2 is more than just the content itself. It’s a place where players create memories together and form lasting friendships, and it’s a place where they will have unforgettable experiences for years to come. While we can’t reverse the decisions we made at the time, we recognize the impact and are committed to restoring Destiny’s story.”
But it should be emphasized that it is not as simple as simply restoring old files. Due to the innovations introduced after Beyond Light and Shadow, lighting, opponents, and other systems had to be updated first.
But why should the post-Monument rethink be Destiny 2’s last major update? “When we announced that Monument of Victory will be the final content update for Destiny 2, you all spoke up. Your voices matter, and your participation makes a real impact. You showed everyone how important this world, its history, and its future continue to be to you,” Bungie said.
At the same time, the return of “Destiny 2” content also heralds the future of “Destiny 3”: “”Destiny” is the foundation of Bungie’s future. We have more stories to tell and more new worlds to create, but we must do it right and give our teams enough time to do justice to this great universe. In short: Our “Destiny” is not finished yet.”
More details will be announced in the coming months.
