Activision Blizzard has released its financial results for the quarter ended September 30 announcing that sales for Destiny 2: Forsaken, the series' latest major expansion have not lived up to the publisher high expectations. During that earning call, Activision has promised investors that Bungie will create a faster way to introduce new content, as the company is thinking about new forms of monetization.

Destiny 2's director, Luke Smith, has decided to respond to the aforementioned report and stated that the development team is "not disappointed" in the latest instalment. "We set out to build a game that Destiny players would love, and at Bungie, we love it too," Smith wrote on Twitter this Saturday. "Building Destiny for players who love it is and will remain our focus going forward."

According to a recent leak, Destiny 3 is already being developed at Bungie. The leak comes from a prominent Reddit leaker who revealed in the past many information about Destiny 2: Forsaken. AnonTheNine's sources confirmed that the work on Destiny 3 just begun and Art Director for Destiny Christopher Barrett and Destiny 2 Director Luke Smith are involved in the project. Sadly, the Reddit user didn't reveal Destiny 3’s target release date or whether or not it will launch for this gen's consoles.
