Bungie is ready to give us another glimpse at Destiny 2's next expansion, The Final Shape.
Destiny 2: The Final Shape Underperfoming Could Lead to More Layoffs at Bungie – Rumor
20.03.2024 - 16:37 / gamingbolt.com / Sony
From layoffs and a delay to Destiny 2’s The Final Shape to a new Marathon director and the rumored cancellation of Matter, Bungie is in a fair amount of turmoil these days. The developer delayed The Final Shape to allow more time for polish amid reports of pre-orders tracking below expectations.
If that weren’t enough, there are reportedly fears of layoffs once the expansion launches, according to a new report by IGN. A source with “knowledge of budgets” at Bungie said, “Nothing adds up” and “something will need to happen to curb costs unless The Final Shape does so well to cover the gap and people can move to Marathon.”
Senior leadership is seemingly expected to depart the studio in Summer 2026 once it receives the remaining payouts from Sony’s acquisition. However, the overall mood at Bungie currently is that The Final Shape needs to succeed. What could happen if it falls below expectations is unknown, but it’s nothing positive.
Destiny 2: The Final Shape launches on June 4th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, Xbox One and PS4. The developer will reveal more details in April, so stay tuned for more updates.

Something is Wrong With the Final Fantasy 14 Profanity Filter on Xbox
The profanity filter for the Xbox client of Final Fantasy 14 is going a bit overboard, censoring bizarre phrases and letter combinations in its chat interface. This is causing parts of otherwise innocuous words to be censored, even if they are across multiple words or a part of automatically-generated emote text in Final Fantasy 14.
