The Layoffs at Bungie: A Shift in Priorities or a Warning Sign? The recent reports of layoffs at Bungie, developer of the Destiny franchise, have raised questions about Sony's commitment to its acquired studios.
While the PlayStation giant has been expanding its in house development capabilities through high profile acquisitions like Bluepoint Games, the news from Bungie suggests that even with significant investment, some studios may not be immune to layoffs and restructuring.
Bungie's decision to end active development on Destiny 2 is likely a major factor in the layoffs.
