Released earlierUpdate news中，Bungie確定將原訂在2024年2月推出的《天命2》資料片「最終形態」延後至6月4日，可能與近期大規模裁員有關。
Although Bungie said that it needed more time to make the expansion more perfect and therefore decided to adjust the official launch time of the expansion, many people believe that the delay is related to the recent layoffs.
According to relevant data from Steam, the average number of players of "Destiny 2" in the past 30 days was 34328, and the highest number of players online at the same time was 59076, both of which set new lows since the game was launched on the Steam platform in October 2019. Bungie CEO Pete Parsons even attributed the poor revenue performance to the game's inability to successfully attract players to play.
When a company is unable to make a profit, it naturally resorts to layoffs to control costs. Relevant news even indicates that Bungie's recent layoffs affected approximately 8% of its employees, which indirectly affected the progress of game development, forcing the expansion pack originally scheduled for February next year to be postponed.
In addition to the confirmation that the "Destiny 2" expansion pack will be postponed, the remastered game "Marathon", which was previously confirmed to be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC platforms, is now confirmed to be postponed to 2025.
