For the moment we do not know whether to take advantage of the Smart Delivery function so that the Xbox One game can be replaced by the Xbox Series X version at no cost. As for the type of improvements, you could take advantage of the fast load that the new platforms promise, effects such as ray-tracing and 60 fps, because even on PS4 Pro and Xbox One X the shooter remains at 30 fps. "Could we get a Destiny game at 60 FPS on consoles? S. But the scenarios will be smaller, it will be less cooperative and it will have fewer enemies. It is not the game we want to make," justified Bungie at the time.
Destiny 2 in recent years
Launched in 2017, Destiny 2 has received new content over the past few years as The renegades and Bastin of Shadows. Last year Bungie announced that regained rights to the game and the break with Activision, and also debuted in the streaming service Google Stadia although with controversy for its performance for running at 1080p and rescaling at 4K.
Bungie was one of the first developers to react to the coronavirus, closing the offices and betting on teleworking for her employees. About Destiny 3, the study believes it will still take time to come out: "Right now our commitment and focus is to make the sequel seasons unfold over the course of next year interesting and maintain a perennial story arc that will keep players interested," the study reported in December.
