It has been reported that Destiny 2 will be transitioning to smaller “content packs”instead of its current content drops in the wake of a 17% reduction in Bungie’s staff. This news has caused concern among players, as they fear for the future of the looter shooter.
The fate of Destiny 2 is uncertain following the announcement from Bungie that 17% of its employees have been let go. This news has caused a stir among players, with some calling for CEO Pete Parsons to resign from his position at the company.
Despite the cancellation of Destiny 3, or what could have been D3 in the form of its associated spinoff titled Payback, Destiny 2 players still have plenty to look forward to. They can continue playing Destiny 2 and its predecessor, as well as any future updates and expansions.
Despite this, a recent report has indicated that Destiny 2 may also be affected by the changes, with hints that upcoming content in the looter shooter will be noticeably reduced.
The heavy-hitting news comes right after the success of The Final Shape in Destiny 2.
According to reliable source Jeff Grubb, the report stated that Destiny 2 will be moving away from the traditional larger expansions. Instead, the game will reportedly introduce smaller “content packs”that are more efficient and less demanding for the developers.
According to Grubb’s statement on Game Mess Morning, the team expects future content for Destiny 2 to be less time-consuming and require fewer people than The Final Shape did.
According to additional information revealed on the Destiny 2 leaks Discord server, the upcoming changes will include two DLCs and two seasons per year, with each season lasting for six months. Rather than having weekly story updates, there will now be a single introductory mission that introduces the theme of the season.
The seasonal loop will continue to offer tasks that must be finished, allowing you to acquire seasonal gear for use in the Rally Event. This upcoming event will take place twice per season, and you will only be allowed to utilize seasonal weapons and armor during it.
The upcoming week will be filled with exciting events, featuring an enhanced version of the seasonal activity with improved rewards.

As expected, the news has caused fear among the player base regarding the future of the game, with many stating that the title is now “dead.”
“The end is near. It has been an enjoyable 10 years,”stated a player on social media.
“Although I attempt to remain optimistic, the situation does not seem promising,”another individual concurred.
It should be noted that Bungie has not yet officially confirmed any of these leaks, therefore it is best to approach them with caution.
