Marathon Season 2 just got announced.
Open Play Week starts June 2. Free 7 days. Full game on sale.
Bungie is making a real play here. New zone, new shell, new weapons, faster progression. They're listening to feedback.
The question isn't whether Season 2 is good. The question is whether it can break the death curve.
What's your read?

I'm not gonna lie guys. I'm shocked at what I'm sitting on right now.
Two videos coming this week that I genuinely cannot wait to post.
One is a 90 day countdown on a game everyone thinks is fine.
The other is a 10 year dataset I've never seen anyone else compile.
Both drop this week. 😎

Bungie just walked away from Destiny 2.
Final content update June 9, 2026. After 9 years. After Sony paid $3.6 billion. After the $765 million writedown.
Remember when I gave Marathon 60 days?
The death curve was never just about Marathon. It was about the entire Bungie business model collapsing in real time.
Sony bought a live service company.
They got a publisher with no live service to run.
Full breakdown video dropping this week.
Did Sony just lose the biggest gaming acquisition bet of all time?

Subnautica 2 just sold 2M copies in 12 hours.
That's the same Krafton that fired the founders to avoid a $250M bonus.
Dropping a full breakdown soon..
Quick question for the comments:
Did Krafton's strategy backfire harder than Sony's Marathon bet?

Working on the next video. Trying a new delivery kinda more conversational, less choppy edits. You all asked for it in the comments.
Topic: Bungie Layoffs Round 3 Is Coming.
Sony wrote down $765M. The math says layoffs hit before August earnings. I'll show you the exact deadline.
Posting in a few days.

Cooking the Sony earnings video right now.
The numbers are worse than I thought. $765M wiped off Bungie’s value in one year. And that’s not even the worst part.
Dropping later today. 👀

Massive shoutout to @SmashJT 🫡
He just reacted to my Bungie Marathon breakdown on his channel (131K subs) and said some genuinely kind words. Means a lot at this stage.
If you're not subbed to him already, fix it. He's been one of the realest voices covering Marathon/Bungie/Sony from day one.

Sony May 8 reaction loading. Locked in 🔴
