According to Reddit user 32638272187, Destiny 3 might be in development under the intriguing codename “Payback”. The disclosure of this rumor dates back to February.
This old leak gained delayed attention after the leaker’s information about Destiny 2: Final Shape Prismatic subclass was confirmed. Apart from the codename, the Reddit source mentioned that the classes may no longer exist in the rumored sequel.
The alleged codename has been subjected to various interpretations ever since. Many Destiny 2 enthusiasts have concluded that the rumored title might be hinting toward losing in the Final Shape. Bashing the extreme interpretations, the leaker has recently posted “not to read too far” into the code name.
The leaker further explained that they do not have any insight into the episodes or storyline of the upcoming title.
The Reddit user revealed their sources to be former Bungie employees. While Bungie has not officially confirmed the development of Destiny 3, the leaker seems to be quite confident in their lead. However, the leaker admitted that their knowledge is limited to these sources.
While the leaker’s lead about Final Shape Prismatic Classes has lent credibility to them, only Bungie can confirm the development rumors of Destiny 3.
