What We Know

Multiple local and national outlets report that Bungie — the Bellevue studio behind the Destiny franchise — is conducting substantial layoffs. A Washington news outlet and other local reports say Sony filed a notice for cuts at the Bellevue site, and one report specifically states 292 positions will be eliminated, with permanent job cuts taking effect July 9. Coverage says the reductions span development, engineering, design and support roles. National gaming outlets frame the layoffs as connected to the company’s decision to end Destiny 2-era work. Reporting from The Verge and Kotaku describes the cuts as “significant” and says they follow the end of Destiny 2 support; Kotaku specifically reports that most of the Destiny team and some developers working on Marathon were among those affected. Local outlets including The Seattle Times and KOMO/FOX13 also covered the notices and the personnel impact in Bellevue.
