After months of waiting, Bungie has once again commented on the lack of a roadmap for Destiny 2. However, there are still no concrete plans for upcoming content. This is causing growing uncertainty in the community, especially with the release of Marathon approaching and the question of how Bungie is currently distributing its resources between the two projects.

Even before the launch of Renegades in December, players had been demanding clear information. At that time, Principal Comms Manager Dylan Gafner, better known as dmg04, wrote that he was “very sorry” and that the team was continuing to work on it. Now, around three months later, another brief statement has followed, confirming one thing above all else: there is still no roadmap.

dmg04: Bungie understands the growing uncertainty

In a post on X, dmg04 wrote that Bungie understands that the lack of information is causing players to feel “fear, uncertainty, and doubt.”
At the same time, he emphasized that the teams were working to deliver an update as soon as possible. He apologized again for the delay.
The post did not mention a specific timeline or hint at any content. This means that Destiny 2 still has no official roadmap, even though Bungie had previously promised one.

Thin blog post draws new criticism from the community

In addition, Bungie published a blog post this week that many players perceived as unusually brief. At the same time, there is growing concern in the community that Bungie is currently torn between Destiny 2 and Marathon.

There is also an internal issue at stake: according to discussions in the community, the Shadow and Order update is said to have been postponed internally. However, Bungie has not confirmed any delay.

Two expansions still expected for 2026

Despite the lack of a roadmap, two expansions are still expected for this year. These are called The Shattered Cycle and The Alchemist. However, no specific details, dates, or content were provided in the current communication.

Bungie has also been under scrutiny since the studio became part of Sony.
The community is discussing whether Destiny 2 will continue in the long term and what role Marathon will play in this. There have been no official statements on this.
Destiny 2 struggles with a content gap after Edge of Fate
Destiny 2 had already moved away from classic seasonal content drops last year. The Edge of Fate expansion marked a new direction, which triggered mixed reactions in the community.
Since then, there has been increasing talk of a content gap after major releases. In this phase, the lack of a roadmap is particularly critical, as longer periods of inactivity often lead to declining player numbers.

Steam figures: 24-hour peak at 16,783 players

Steam figures also show a recent decline in activity. The 24-hour peak is currently at 16,783 players. After Renegades, the curve seems to be continuing its downward trend.

Another prolonged period without clear communication or content outlook could further exacerbate the situation for Destiny 2.
