Bungie's 'Sci-Fantasy, Action Shooter' Project 'Destiny' Comes to Light in Activision Lawsuit

[Aions]

Bungie's contract with Activision to develop a new series of shooters code-named "Destiny" was revealed in a civil court case.

The contract was included in a lawsuit filed by former Activision employees Jason West and Vincent Zampella. The contract revealed Bungie's plans for a new "sci-fantasy, action shooter" code-named "Destiny" with plans for an initial release in the fall of 2013.

Bungie and Activision planned to release the new game first on the Xbox 360 and its next-generation successor with subsequent releases on the PS3, Sony's next Playstation console and the PC. Bungie also agreed to develop four of the "Destiny" games with a release every other year starting in 2013. Four downloadable expansion packs nicknamed "Comet" would follow the initial release of "Destiny" every other year starting in 2014.

The contract also revealed Bungie's plans for a revival of the Marathon FPS, an early cult hit for the company in 1994 on the Apple Macintosh.

So Next gen consoles by 2013 eh?​

The first game was meant to release on 360 in 2013 and then the others in a cycle a couple of years apart so no new console will come in 2013. It will be 2014 and onwards you will be looking at new consoles perhaps.
