Destiny franchise’s future reportedly in doubt following more Bungie layoffs
After 17 percent of Bungie’s staff was laid off yesterday, the future of the Destiny franchise is now way murkier than before, according to reports.
On the Aug. 1 episode of the Game Mess Mornings podcast, Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb reported that the next Destiny project, codenamed “Payback,” has had its development halted. He said that “Payload [later clarified to be Payback], which is the ‘next Destiny,’ is being shelved indefinitely.”
