The Halo video game was Bungie’s most well-known creation for a long time. The firm became well-known for creating renowned games like Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2, many of which redefined the first-person shooter genre.
These days, Bungie is most frequently linked to the cooperative online sci-fi shooter series called Destiny. Bungie recently decided to sell itself to PlayStation for $3.6 billion, bringing Sony’s illustrious portfolio of franchises under its control.
Fans are speculating about what this will mean for the future of Bungie’s numerous franchises now that the acquisition has been finalized and the most recent Halo game, Halo Infinite, is having trouble.
Does Bungie have any rights to Halo?
The rights to Halo remained with Microsoft and Xbox after Bungie broke away from the company in 2007 to form their own company. Microsoft granted Halo’s development rights to 343 Industries, a first-party studio after Bungie stopped working on the game.
Bungie still holds a few significant franchises and games.
