Unpacking the Destiny 3 Rumors: Release Date, Leaks, and the Future

The recent reveal of Destiny 2: The Final Shape has the community buzzing. Is this the grand finale for Destiny 2, or is there more in store? A resurfacing leak on Reddit has reignited speculation about a potential Destiny 3.

Is Destiny 3 Happening?

This question has sparked heated discussions among the Destiny 2 community, fueled by a month-old leak that’s gaining new traction. The leak, originally posted by Reddit user u/32638272187, correctly predicted the introduction of a system called “Prism” in The Final Shape, allowing players to mix and match abilities across subclasses.

The user, citing conversations with former Bungie employees, further claimed the existence of “Destiny 3: Payback” currently under development. This rumored sequel reportedly features a major shift in the class system, enabling any character to utilize abilities from any subclass – a lore-based change considering abilities like “Blink” aren’t inherently tied to specific classes.

While the Reddit post is the primary source of the Destiny 3 rumor, details remain scarce. Bungie hasn’t officially confirmed or denied the existence of a sequel. Players eager for more information will have to wait and see if additional details about a potential release date or gameplay features for Destiny 3 emerge.
