Bungie's veteran CEO Pete Parsons is leaving the company
Bungie's long-time CEO, Pete Parsons, is leaving the company after over two decades. Justin Truman, the general manager of Destiny 2 and Bungie's chief development officer, will take over as the new studio head. Parsons oversaw Bungie during a significant period, including the studio's decision to publish its own games and the $3.6 million acquisition by Sony. However, Bungie has faced challenges since the Sony acquisition, including layoffs and difficulties in developing its new game, Marathon, which was delayed indefinitely due to stolen art assets. Truman's appointment as the new studio head suggests that Destiny 2 will remain a focus for Bungie, and it may also signal a closer relationship between Bungie and Sony's PlayStation Studios, as indicated by recent comments from Sony's CFO.
