People Are Spamming Sony’s State of Play Chat With Destiny 3 Requests
Destiny fans flooded Sony’s State of Play livestream chat during its September 2026 broadcast with the hashtag #WeWantDestiny, collectively demanding a continuation of Bungie’s looter shooter franchise, specifically Destiny 3.
The community’s coordinated campaign reflects growing frustration following Bungie’s shift away from Destiny 2 earlier this year. With parent company Sony backing a strategic pivot toward Marathon—an extraction shooter currently in development—the active Destiny playerbase has been left uncertain about the franchise’s future. Despite repeated updates, Marathon has struggled to generate the community excitement or momentum that Sony and Bungie had anticipated.
The chat spam during the high-profile PlayStation event represents a visible public demonstration of where player interest actually lies. The passionate Destiny community is using the State of Play platform to signal their priorities to both Bungie and Sony leadership, hoping to influence future development decisions.
The situation highlights a broader challenge facing live-service games during major franchise transitions. By deprioritizing Destiny 2, Bungie has left its dedicated fanbase in limbo, uncertain whether the game will receive substantial new content or if the franchise is effectively dormant. Whether Sony and Bungie will respond to this community pressure with official announcements about Destiny’s roadmap or a potential sequel remains unclear.
