Destiny 2’s Black Armory may have been so disappointing that I actually decided to put the game down for the rest of 2018 and well into 2019, but the latest seasonal change has me itching to grab a few high-power bounties and get my Guardian ready for a leaner and meaner take on Gambit.

Gaming’s power couple is officially over. In a new blog post, Destiny developer Bungie revealed today that it has begun to part ways with publisher Activision, ending a partnership that began in 2010 and saw the release of Destiny, its first sequel and numerous expansions. “We have enjoyed a successful eight-year run and would like to thank Activision for their partnership on Destiny,” Bungie wrote on their site.
