What We Know

Reporting based on a government filing and company statements says Sony is cutting roughly 292 positions at Bungie’s Bellevue, Washington headquarters following the end of development on Destiny 2. Local news and industry outlets say the layoffs affect workers across development, engineering, design and support, with permanent job cuts reported to take effect July 9. Bungie acknowledged mass layoffs were underway but did not provide a precise company-wide number; the filing and multiple news outlets place the Bellevue impact at about 292 (often summarized as “nearly 300”).

Coverage from Kotaku and IGN frames the move as part of Sony’s broader set of cuts and restructuring and notes Bungie has admitted Destiny 2 “fell short of expectations.” Some reports specify that the reductions include most of the Destiny team and some developers who had been working on Marathon. Combined reporting indicates the action is tied to the end of the Destiny 2 development cycle and internal restructuring at the Sony-owned studio.
