Recent reports indicate that most staff at Bungie were not informed about the discontinuation of support for Destiny 2 until it was publicly announced last week. This revelation has caused considerable surprise within the gaming community, especially after the studio launched its latest project, Marathon, just months prior.
While only select teams were aware of the change, sources suggest that those in the dark included developers actively working on upcoming updates. Allegations suggest that the decision to cease Destiny 2 support was made earlier this year, with many developers hoping to bring the information to a broader audience before it went public.
The fallout from this announcement also includes potential layoffs, as Bungie shifts focus to its future projects.
