Bungie Is Officially Ending Development For Destiny 2, Final Update Launching Soon

After 9 years, Bungie will stop creating new content for Destiny 2 on June 9.

To be clear, Destiny 2 will remain playable for the foreseeable future, but June 9th’s Moment of Triumph will be the game’s last new content drop. To their credit, Bungie seems to be making this final update a pretty stacked one.

“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,” says Bungie in a post on bungie.net.

“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.”

When Bungie officially stopped making new content for the original Destiny back in 2016, Destiny 2 had already been announced and was a year away from launching, so Destiny fans knew what the future held. This time, there’s no such announcement. Destiny 3 is likely being made, but we don’t know for sure.

It’s a sad moment for Destiny fans, then. A true end of an era. For the first time in a long time, they’re facing down a future without a new Destiny in sight.

As for Bungie, they’ve currently got another live-service game on the market in the form of Marathon, but it seems to be struggling. Its Steam player counts – which obviously are only a glimpse into the game’s performance – are often below that of Destiny 2 despite being a much newer game.

Sony also recently recognised a second impairment charge against Bungie, essentially saying they massively overpaid for the company when they purchased it in 2022.

Quite cool analysis. It might seem to runners that everyone is running, but in fact, it's not so widespread.

Remember that #Bungie was bought not because of its talent, but because they were leaning into #LiveService games (#Destiny and #Destiny2).

I played some #Marathon last night. My computer crashed mid-run, and two squads came out of the woodwork to murderize the idiot (me) standing still in the clearing in front of Hauler.

The other two members of my rando squad murderized both squads because they were so fixated on killing the vulnerable idiot (me). I reconnected just in time to see the notification that I had completed my "kill 5 runners" mission.
