Destiny 2 Ending New Content Is “Unthinkable,” Warframe Dev Says

Gamespot Gamespot





Bungie recently announced that it is https://www.gamespot.com/articles/destiny-2-is-getting-last-content-update-soon-as-bungie-moves-onto-its-next-big-game/1100-6540084/" id="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/destiny-2-is-getting-last-content-update-soon-as-bungie-moves-onto-its-next-big-game/1100-6540084/">ending ongoing content releases for Destiny 2 on June 9, with the Sony-owned studio shifting to new projects.

The end-of-service announcement was upsetting to many, including Warframe creative director Rebecca Ford.





She said on the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obGka49BitI&t=2746s" id="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obGka49BitI&t=2746s">OnlyFrames podcast that there is "no world where it makes sense."





"Obviously, that news was just cataclysmic.

I think there is no world where it makes sense from someone who, you know, enjoys video games that you can just do that," Ford said (https://mp1st.com/news/warframe-director-on-destiny-2-support-ending-no-world-where-it-makes-sense-says-there-is-no-warframe-without-bungie" id="https://mp1st.com/news/warframe-director-on-destiny-2-support-ending-no-world-where-it-makes-sense-says-there-is-no-warframe-without-bungie">via MP1st). "You can just end one of the biggest things to hit the gaming industry in the past 10 years."





Ford went on to say Destiny 2 coming to an end is the result of "the business side of things."





"You’ve seen the business side of things be the biggest voice in the room for a long time.

It’s just never hurt this much for a lot of people in our niche genre, I think, which is, you know, it’s unthinkable," she explained.





Ford shared further commentary on https://x.com/rebbford/status/2058177889485340850" id="https://x.com/rebbford/status/2058177889485340850">social media, writing, "There is no Warframe without the legacy of Bungie games."





She added: "Destiny was and is a force of nature, loved and held in the hands of so many people who, for a moment, were part of the biggest thing in gaming.

Then comes the words, summarized crudely: 'The End.'"





Bungie is now focusing on Marathon and incubation work on "our next games," whatever those may be.

Destiny 2 is not joining the https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/live-service-graveyard-all-the-games-shut-down-far-too-soon/2900-5747/" id="https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/live-service-graveyard-all-the-games-shut-down-far-too-soon/2900-5747/">live-service graveyard and going offline, however, it's just no longer getting new content updates.





Destiny fans https://www.gamespot.com/articles/bungie-fans-have-taken-over-sonys-state-of-play-broadcast-to-demand-destiny-3/" id="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/bungie-fans-have-taken-over-sonys-state-of-play-broadcast-to-demand-destiny-3/">want Destiny 3, but it remains to be seen if Bungie will make it.

A report said Bungie staffers are pitching new Destiny projects, but none have been greenlit as of yet.

Bungie is also reportedly about to https://www.gamespot.com/articles/report-claims-significant-layoffs-are-incoming-for-bungie-as-destiny-2-ends/" id="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/report-claims-significant-layoffs-are-incoming-for-bungie-as-destiny-2-ends/">undergo "significant" layoffs.
