'In a very interesting way, it actually reduces the work': Destiny 2's director explains why reinventing the wheel with The Edge of Fate was actually the easier option

Destiny 2: Edge of Fate hero crop.

It's hard to think of a time in the decade since Destiny launched when the next expansion wasn't make or break. As the first major release since last year's The Final Shape, which did the improbable job of landing the game's sprawling narrative successfully, this year's The Edge of Fate expansion has the unenviable job of kickstarting a whole new saga. It also has to reverse historically low player counts and introduce a raft of major systemic changes at a time when morale at Bungie is reportedly bleak in the wake of the Marathon plagiarism debacle.
