Bungie has announced that starting in 2025, it'll be switching to offering two "medium-sized" expansions for Destiny 2 per year, rather than the annual expansions it'd previously constructed its plans around. Why? Well, according the game's director, things were getting "too rigid" and feel a bit "formulaic" in terms of these add-ons.
This change comes not long after The Final Shape arrived to a pretty favourable reception back in June, but was subsequently followed by Bungie laying off 220 staff amid some other big changes. The cuts were reportedly in the works long before that expansion arrived and couldn't have been prevented even if it had blown away all expectations, with Bungie asserting that it was still "committed to Destiny" after them.
As teased, it's now provided some more info as to what that support will look like going forwards. The big news? Out goes the established focus on offering annual expansions, in favour of doing "two medium-sized expansions, one every six months", and four free "major updates" per year.
