Sony shelves Destiny 2 IP, ending game support without clear successor

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Sony Group has decided to end support for the live-service game Destiny 2, a move that has surprised many in the gaming industry. Unlike other long-running games or franchises that have been replaced or continued with new installments, Destiny 2's IP appears to be entirely shelved with no immediate plans for a sequel or related projects. This decision is particularly unusual given Destiny 2's status as an innovator in its genre and its lack of association with a larger, established intellectual property like Marvel or Star Wars, which typically ensure continued game development.
