Destiny 2's PvP Future: Uncertainty and Risk for Crucible and Gambit Players

Bungie has removed chunks of its Destiny 2 PvP-based teams to work on unannounced projects, which seem to lean heavily into PvP components, including hero shooter, battle royale, and a return to the Marathon IP for a team-based extraction shooter. This has impacted Destiny 2's PvP side, with little more than sandbox changes and a reshuffling of rules and game modes. Gambit has also shrunk over time, losing two of its six maps, and there have been no new maps since 2019. The gamble is whether these new games are worth what Destiny 2 has lost on its PvP side.
