Bungie has revealed that we won’t be getting any Destiny 3 news for a while, with the company instead focussed on supporting Destiny 2, which is receiving steady content updates via seasonal events. That’s not to say Destiny 3 won’t happen; it’s just not going to be out anytime soon from the sound of things.
Destiny 3 Release Is Still Some Ways Off
Speaking with PCGamesN, David Dague, Bungie’s comms director, revealed that fans will “have to wait a little longer” before Destiny 3 news comes knocking.
I don’t have any good announcements to make about the next bold moves we’ll make in the franchise Right now our commitment and our attention is to make the seasons that will unfold over the course of the next year interesting and sustain a perennial story arc that will keep players engaged.
I understand the question you’re asking and it’s certainly an interesting one, and we’ll have a lot of cool stuff to say on that later, but I’m afraid that moment will have to wait a little bit longer.
Destiny 3 had been heavily rumored to come out in 2020 just in time for the arrival of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox, but right now it’s not looking likely. Regardless, you can bet that a third game will arrive on next-generation consoles by the time it hits shelves.
Bungie is now fully in control of the Destiny IP following its split from publishing partner Activision earlier this year. One of its first moves was to re-launch Destiny 2 and bring cross-save into the equation, as well as offering the new expansion, Shadowkeep.
Destiny 2 was released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in September 2017, and arrived on PC the following month. Read our review here.
Looking ahead, Bungie plans on releasing at least one non-Destiny title by 2025. Stay tuned to PSU.com for more details as we get them.
