Destiny developer Bungie has issued a short statement acknowledging concern over the future of its decade-old sci-fi franchise following “recent changes” at the studio.
Those “recent changes” are, of course, the sweeping layoffs that have seen 220 Bungie staff out of a job, less than a year after a further 100 employees were let go last October. A further 155 Bungie staff are also departing the studio for roles within parent company PlayStation.
In response, Bungie has now said it remains “committed” to Destiny, though details of what’s next remain thin on the ground. There’s also no mention of the departures of key Destiny creatives Luke Smith and Mark Noseworthy, who were reportedly developing a now-cancelled Destiny spin-off named Payback.
