Active development on Destiny 2 will come to an end with a final update coming June 9, Bungie announced today, officially sunsetting the MMO following a few dire years.

"Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today," Bungie says. "Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to."

In its announcement, Bungie acknowledges that "it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2."
