Bungie announced that the live service development for Destiny 2 will conclude on June 9, 2026, after nearly nine years, ten expansions, three episodic narratives, and 30 seasons. The game initially gained popularity for its shooting mechanics and immersive worlds but began to shift in essence around 2022, with changes like power level disadvantages and a focus on challenge introduced by former game director Joe Blackburn in February 2023. Players experienced frustrations with microtransactions and item economies, and beloved worlds were vaulted, leading to alienation among long-time fans. The final expansion, Final Shape, aims to conclude the decade of storytelling amidst internal turmoil at Bungie.

Final Fantasy 11 takes cues from FF14 as Square Enix plans a dramatic free trial expansion

Final Fantasy 11 is set to enhance its free trial experience by removing the current two-week limit and raising the level cap for trial players from 50 to 75. The changes aim to allow players unrestricted playtime and greater engagement with the game, similar to the successful free trial model of Final Fantasy 14. Certain restrictions will remain to prevent farming bots and scammers, including limitations on using the auction house, party invitations, earning more than 100,000 gil at a time, and communication methods. Director Yoji Fujito acknowledged that the existing trial limitations feel outdated and expressed a desire to implement these changes before the game's 25th anniversary in May 2027.
