Destiny 2 Development Rumors; Activision Releases Financial Results
Tuesday, Nov. 4, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg revealed during the post-earnings financial call that the next "full game" in the Destiny game franchise series has already started.
"Work has also begun on future expansion packs as well as on our next full game release," the executive said. "We're very pleased with the launch and continuing engagement."
The said sequel isn't that surprising at all, given that Activision has already declared that they had a "10-year vision" for the game franchise.

In September, Activision announced that Destiny had sold in the market to "more than $325 million worth of products in its first five days of availability."
As of today, the publisher had non-GAAP revenue to total more than $500 million in the third quarter.
