## Resource

Bungie is facing another brutal round of layoffs, with Sony confirming cuts across the studio, including most of the Destiny team and some Marathon developers. Bungie says Destiny 2 fell short of expectations in recent years, and after its final content update, the studio could no longer operate at its previous size.The biggest question now is whether Bungie co-founder Jason Jones may be affected, after a WARN notice reportedly listed the Chief Vision Officer role as eliminated, which was Jones’ previously listed title.
