Bungie Creative Team Joins PlayStation to Enhance Live Service Games

Sony integrates Bungie's expertise to strengthen its live service game offerings amid ongoing challenges and restructuring.

  • Bungie's Creative Studios team has officially moved to PlayStation Studios to support its live service game development.
  • Bridget O'Neill, former senior director at Bungie, will lead the new creative team at PlayStation Studios.
  • The integration follows Bungie's July layoffs, where 220 employees were cut, and 155 roles were absorbed by Sony.
  • Sony's acquisition of Bungie in 2022 was partially driven by a desire to leverage Bungie's live service expertise.
  • Despite the transition, Bungie will continue work on Destiny 2 and Marathon while aiding PlayStation's live service initiatives.
