Bungie’s under-wraps work with Chinese publisher NetEase involves a mobile shooter set in the Destiny universe, a new report has claimed.
Job adverts for a Destiny project were previously spotted last year by The Game Post. Required skills included a “willingness to travel to China” on a regular basis, and host Chinese partner teams.
NetEase invested $100m in Bungie back in 2018, though the companies have never officially confirmed what the two are working on.
Speculation had previously pointed to the two companies working on Bungie’s next big AAA IP – potentially the franchise it trademarked the name “Matter” for, also in 2018. Job ads dug up by The Game Post in 2020 pointed to this project being “something comedic” with “lighthearted and whimsical characters”.
