Developers at Digital Extremes have expressed deep sadness over the end of updates for Destiny 2. Warframe community director Megan Everett described the news as heartbreaking and earth-shattering. The studio rejected any notion of celebration despite the games' similar genres.
The announcement that Destiny 2 would receive no further updates from Bungie came on May 20. Everett told Eurogamer that the Warframe team felt personal distress at the development.
"It's heartbreaking. It's earth-shattering," Everett said. "No one is celebrating the fact that this has happened to Destiny, and its players and that story."
Creative director Rebecca Ford posted on X shortly after the news, stating there is no Warframe without the legacy of Bungie games. She highlighted her own history with Halo and Destiny.
Everett added that competition between the titles had been healthy and that players should support each other rather than compare the games negatively.
