Destiny 2's player count has dropped to one of its lowest levels yet, with peak concurrent users on Steam at around 16,001 in the past 24 hours. At the same time, Bungie Studios hired a new global series director.Hilary Headey said on Twitter: "I seem to have always loved this game series, and I am very excited to be involved in its future development." And yes, she has played "Destiny 1".
Heidi has a very impressive resume and has participated in the development of many games such as "Dragon Age: Inquisition", "The Evil Within 2" and "Starry Sky".She also worked at BioWare Studios as a member of the "Mass Effect" team, participated in the development of the ending of "Dragon Age: Shadowkeep", and served as the lead producer of the next "Mass Effect".
Headey has been with Bungie since September 2025, and it's unclear how her job will impact the direction of the loot shooter, which has been unclear since the launch of Edge of Destiny.This is largely due to players' dissatisfaction with "portals", "power level brushing" and various bugs. These problems also exist in recent updates.
"Destiny 2" will launch a new expansion pack called "Rebels" in December. This expansion pack is deeply influenced by the "Star Wars" series and also includes lightsabers, blasters and other weapons.
