Halo on Playstation?? Cross Platform Halo??

It feels like I suddenly have butterflies in my stomach. <3

Bungie does not have ownership of the Halo IP. When they became independent of Microsoft 15 years ago Microsoft retained the rights
Sadly they don't own the Halo IP.
No Halo.

Destiny 3 will probably be exclusive to Playstation though.

Seems they'll aim for making it available for multiple platforms, not PlayStation exclusive.

It's not looking like Destiny 3 is ever going to happen. There was even an interview from March of last year where a director said that they think Destiny 3 would be a mistake.

And on top of that, they've laid out Destiny 2's roadmap until roughly 2024, and say that that's not the end then either.

We'll see!

Destiny, especially Destiny 2 was really mismanaged by the directors though.

They do have another IP, Matter in the works though.

I started playing in late 2019, but I'm up to almost 2500 hours. Can't speak to before that, but it's only been getting better and better as I've played, imho.
I've played both but D2 launch was atrocious and killed the game for me, the removal of random rolls, the dual primaries, the weak abilities and the slow recharge, the 4V4 PVP.

Forsaken pulled it back into being a game I enjoyed but I stopped playing during DLC1 it was so bad.
