A Petition Calling on Sony to Greenlight Destiny 3 Has Over 120,000 Signatures Already — and It’s Rising Fast
AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
An online petition calling on Sony to greenlight Destiny 3 has garnered over 120,000 signatures, despite Bungie's announcement that the last update for Destiny 2 is set for June, effectively ending the Destiny era. The petition's creator, Harley Casto, believes Destiny 3 could inspire new generations of gamers. However, according to Bloomberg, Bungie will suffer significant layoffs and Destiny 3 is not actively in the works. The high development costs, reportedly hundreds of millions of dollars, may be a major factor in Sony's decision. The petition continues to rise, but the game's future remains uncertain, with fans expressing concern and nostalgia for the franchise. The end of Destiny 2 support marks a significant shift for Bungie, which plans to pitch ideas in the Destiny universe, but not Destiny 3.
