In an update released earlier, Bungie confirmed that it would postpone the “Final Form” expansion pack for “Destiny 2” originally scheduled to be released in February 2024 to June 4, which may be related to the recent large-scale layoffs. Bungie has confirmed that it will postpone the launch of the “Destiny 2” expansion pack “Final Form” to June next year. Although Bungie said that it needs more time to make the expansion pack more complete, it finally decided to adjust the official launch time of the expansion pack. However, many opinions believe that this time The delay is related to recent layoffs. According to relevant data from Steam, the average number of players of “Destiny 2” in the past 30 days was 34,328, and the highest number of players online at the same time was 59,076, both setting new lows since the game was launched on the Steam platform in October 2019, and Bungie CEO Pete Parsons even blamed the poor revenue performance on the game’s inability to successfully attract players to play. When the company is unable to make profits smoothly, it is naturally followed by the practice of controlling costs through layoffs. Related news also claims that Bungie has recently laid off about 8% of its employees, which will affect the progress of game development indirectly. The launch of the expansion pack had to be delayed. In addition to the delay in the release of the “Destiny 2” expansion pack, the remastered game “Marathon”, which was previously confirmed to be launched on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC platforms, is also currently confirmed to be postponed to 2025.
