Destiny 2 player count matches ARC Raiders despite end of development

Despite the cessation of new content for Destiny 2, the game has maintained a surprising player count, matching that of the recently released ARC Raiders with approximately 30,000 concurrent players nightly. This resilience is notable given Destiny 2's official end of development, while ARC Raiders, which launched to significant fanfare, has seen a substantial decline from its peak. The situation also highlights the struggles of Bungie's new title, Marathon, which has garnered a much smaller player base since its release. Players are actively engaging with Destiny 2's existing content, even attempting to revive vaulted material through community projects like "Project Sunrise," indicating a strong player attachment despite Sony Group's decision to halt further development.
