Destiny fans are making their message loud and clear: they do not want the franchise to end with Destiny 2. A new Change.org petition asking Sony to develop Destiny 3 has now crossed more than 200,000 signatures in just three days, turning community frustration into one of the biggest fan campaigns Bungie has seen in years.
The petition, titled “Petition Sony to develop Destiny 3,” calls on Sony, Bungie, and PlayStation leadership to continue the Destiny franchise with a proper sequel. The campaign exploded after Bungie confirmed that Destiny 2’s final live-service content update, Monument of Triumph, will arrive on June 9, 2026, marking the end of the game’s active live-service era.
Destiny 3 Petition Hits Over 200,000 Signatures
The “Develop Destiny 3” petition has grown incredibly fast. The campaign had already reached over 200k signatures in two days.
It is a large and emotional reaction from players who feel Bungie’s sci-fi universe still has too much life left to be placed into maintenance mode.
Of course, a Change.org petition does not guarantee that Sony or Bungie will suddenly start production on Destiny 3. Big sequel decisions depend on budget, staffing, long-term planning, market forecasts, and studio priorities. But 200,000 signatures in three days is still hard to ignore.
Fans Are Begging Sony for Destiny 3
Bungie recently announced that Destiny 2’s final live-service content update, Monument of Triumph, will launch on June 9, 2026. In the same announcement, Bungie said active development is concluding, although Destiny 2 will remain playable, similar to the original Destiny.
Destiny Fans Feel the Franchise Deserves Another Chapter
Destiny is not just another shooter for its core audience. Since the first game launched in 2014 and Destiny 2 followed in 2017, the franchise has built a community around raids, Trials, seasonal stories, clans, lore, loot chases, and years of shared memories.
Fans have also organized a community campaign encouraging Guardians to log in on June 9, the same day as Monument of Triumph, to show Bungie and Sony that there is still demand for Destiny.
To these players, Destiny 3 is not just about new graphics or another campaign. It represents a clean future for the universe, free from years of technical debt, content vaulting frustrations, and the complicated structure that Destiny 2 accumulated over nearly a decade.
Bungie Has Not Announced Destiny 3
Despite the petition’s momentum, Bungie has not announced Destiny 3. The studio’s official messaging right now is focused on ending Destiny 2’s live-service content updates with Monument of Triumph and shifting toward “a new beginning” as it incubates future games.
Some players believe Destiny 3 is the only realistic way to give the franchise a fresh start. Others worry that Bungie’s attention has moved elsewhere, especially with the studio also developing Marathon. Either way, the petition shows that a huge portion of the community is not ready to let Destiny go quiet.
The petition’s message is bigger than “make Destiny 3.” It is also a statement about trust.
Many fans feel they supported Destiny through rough expansions, balance problems, content vaulting, monetization debates, seasonal fatigue, and years of live-service ups and downs. Now, with Destiny 2’s active development ending, they want reassurance that the world they invested in still has a future.
Could Sony Actually Greenlight Destiny 3?
It is impossible to say from the outside. A major Destiny sequel would be expensive, risky, and time-consuming. It would also need to answer difficult questions about player inventories, monetization, cross-platform support, old content, engine tech, and whether players would accept starting over again.
At the same time, Destiny remains one of the most recognizable live-service franchises in gaming. A well-planned Destiny 3 could give Bungie a chance to rebuild the series with a stronger foundation, modern systems, and a cleaner long-term roadmap.
The petition alone will not make that happen. But it does give Sony and Bungie a very visible signal that the audience is still there.
The “Develop Destiny 3” petition, passing 200,000 signatures in just three days, shows how much passion still exists around Bungie’s sci-fi universe. Destiny 2 may be heading into its final live-service update, but the community clearly does not see that as the end of the franchise.
