Pete Parsons is leaving Bungie after more than 23 years, passing leadership to Justin Truman. Parsons helped build the studio, established the Bungie Foundation, grew communities, launched a new Destiny chapter, built an independent live-ops organization, and led Bungie's integration with Sony. Justin Truman served as General Manager for Destiny 2 and Chief Development Officer and held leadership roles in engineering, production, and design. Bungie faces declining player interest in Destiny 2, a delayed Marathon launch, and a difficult Sony integration following a $3.6 billion acquisition in 2022. Parsons expressed pride in the studio and confidence in Truman's leadership.
After more than two decades of helping build this incredible studio, establishing the Bungie Foundation, and growing inspiring communities around our work, I have decided to pass the torch. This journey has been the honor of a lifetime. I am deeply proud of the worlds we've built together and the millions of players who call them home - and most of all I am privileged by the opportunity to work alongside the incredible minds at Bungie.
When I was asked to lead Bungie in 2015, my goal was to grow us into a studio capable of creating and sustaining iconic, generation-spanning entertainment. We've been through so much together: we launched a bold new chapter for Destiny, built an enviable, independent live ops organization capable of creating and publishing its own games, and joined the incredible family at Sony Interactive Entertainment.
