Amid news about Bungie\u2019s mass layoffs, Bloomberg reported the studio had internally delayed its launch plans for The Final Shape. The Destiny 2 expansion wasn\u2019t the only project impacted by the loss of talent, however. Bungie\u2019s new game, Marathon, similarly received a revised production timeline. Notably, the studio itself kept quiet on this front. But an official press release made the rounds days later, with The Final Shape\u2019s original February 27, 2024 due date still attached. Many were led to believe the new content remained on track for early 2024. Thankfully, developers have finally cleared up the confusion with an update on the matter. Destiny 2: The Final Shape delayed to summer 2024 In a post on Destiny 2\u2019s Twitter\/X account, Bungie confirmed The Final Shape has been postponed. The eagerly-anticipated expansion will now arrive next summer, specifically on June 4, 2024. This four-month delay will allow developers to pursue \u201can even bigger and bolder vision,\u201d according to the announcement. In an update video, Game Director Joe Blackburn answered several burning questions about what Destiny 2\u2019s Final Shape delay means for the coming months. Because of the additional four-month wait, the developers are working on ways to keep the excitement high. The months of April and May, then, will offer a \u201cnew period\u201d called Into the Light. For veteran Destiny 2 players and newcomers, Into the Light promises an onboarding experience for those who want to prepare for The Final Shape. Information on this period won\u2019t surface until some time in the new year, however. Blackburn finished the video by noting that developers are aware of the high expectations for The Final Shape. Based on his comments, the team\u2019s up to the task. But players will get to determine that much and more for themselves when the new chapter officially arrives in June 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bungie confirms Destiny 2: The Final Shape delay to meet \u201cbolder vision\u201d BungieFollowing recent rumors and reports, Bungie has confirmed plans to delay Destiny 2: The Final Shape expansion by several months.
