Activision and Bungie Split: What does it mean for Destiny and the Gaming Industry

#2. Finding another Publisher.

Being a self-publisher ain't an easy task which Bungie knows very well of course since after splitting up with Microsoft back in 2007 they went completely dark for a while before signing that 10 year deal with Activision which came to an end now.

So yes, maybe Bungie is already on the lookout for another Publisher who would provide them with the much needed financial support as well as giving the studio enough creative freedom to work as they please.

Sony seems to be the ideal partner for them of course seemingly because they treat their first party studios very well and also PlayStation doesn't really own a good exclusive multiplayer shooter, Bungie might be able to fill in that gap. This is very unlikely however but one can't rule out this possibility.

The only big self-publishing studio as of now is the Polish-based CD PROJEKT RED which works independently and yes indeed has a lot of money to do so.

Bungie even though not as big CD PROJEKT RED might just try being independent or find a temporary partner like From Software does.
