Bungie wants to expand "Destiny 2" into "additional media"

Bungie, the studio behind Destiny 2, has "major expansion" of its headquarters in Bellevue, Washington, the opening of its first international office in Amsterdam, new additions to its board of directors, and, and this is where it really gets interesting, plans to expand Destiny into "additional media." and taking big steps toward the future. In addition, there are plans to release at least one new title outside of Destiny within the next four years.

"The past few years have been a time of tremendous growth and opportunity for Bungie," said CEO Pete Parsons. 'We have some of the best and brightest people in the industry, and we look forward to expanding our talent pool and adding more resources to support them this year.'

The expansion of Bungie's home office will more than double its size, allowing the company to "increase our commitment to the long-term development of Destiny 2, tell new stories in the Destiny Universe, and create a whole new world with our upcoming IP .

Pursuing this goal will also see some changes in Destiny's leadership: Mark Noseworthy, Vice President of Destiny Universe, and Luke Smith, Executive Creative Producer, have announced that " appointed "to oversee and prepare Destiny Universe's expansion into additional media," suggesting that Bungie may be looking to expand into film and television. (Hey, everyone else is doing it.)

Bungie also reaffirmed its plan to run at least one non-Destiny game by 2025, which Parsons first mentioned in 2019.

"Bungie has appointed Jonny Ebbert (Chief Creative Officer) and Zach Russell (General Manager, Incubation) to work with the next generation of Bungie's leaders to create a future world of The creative vision and foundation will be built and driven, with plans to bring at least one new IP to market by 2025," the update said." Jason Jones, Chief Vision Officer, will be responsible for facing talent to ensure that Bungie's top creative leadership reaches their full potential at the company."

Destiny is an ongoing hit, and if the Mandalorians can make a successful TV show, there is no reason why the Guardians can't, but it is the promise of "new IP" that I am looking forward to. In fact, Bungie has made two games in the past 20 years, Halo and Destiny, and I'm honestly curious to see what happens if they decide to spread their creative wings a bit more."
