Sony cuts ‘significant number’ of jobs at Bungie following end of ‘Destiny 2’ development

Sony-owned Bungie is implementing a significant round of layoffs as part of a studio reorganization. These cuts primarily impact most of the Destiny team and several Marathon team members. The decision follows the end of development for Destiny 2, which Bungie admitted fell short of expectations. Furthermore, the Bellevue, Wash.-based creator of Halo and Destiny is facing lackluster player numbers for the new launch of Marathon, leading to these extensive workforce reductions.
