Destiny 2 community manager thanks "everyone who has reached out" as Bungie ends the game after 9 years: "Your stories mean the world to all of us"
The end is nigh for Destiny 2. Bungie recently announced that, after nine years, the cosmic FPS MMO will receive its last update in June of this year. Waves and waves of tributes have poured out since, across the game's vast community, prompting thanks from someone who very actively followed those players.
On Twitter, Dylan 'dmg04' Gafner, the principal communications manager for Destiny at Bungie and a rock for the game's community, expressed his gratitude for all the ways fans have shared their love for the series, and the heartache over its end. "Thank you to everyone who has reached out. Thank you to everyone who’s been sharing what Destiny means to them," he says.
He adds that he's "passing these along to the team as they roll in. Photos, videos, art pieces, everything." I'm sure all of the developers who worked on either or both of the Destiny entries and are still at the studio will be more than happy to see the impact their work has had on so many around the world.

Among the thanks is a clear desire for Destiny 3. There's quite a lot of sequel chatter overall, including a petition for a third installment that has hundreds of thousands of signatures. Multiple voice actors are behind the campaign, perhaps hoping to put a little pressure on Bungie's owner Sony to greenlight another game.
Right now, I don't fancy anyone's odds of that, unfortunately. As it spins up ideas for future games, Bungie's now solely working on Marathon, an extraction that launched earlier this year, and it's been reported that considerable layoffs are expected after Destiny 2 gets its final update.
That update is Monument of Triumph, and it really does feel like the end of the road for the galactic shooter, some 12 years after Destiny itself first launched. Quite a journey; at least we still have the stars.
