The series reliably performs remarkably well. Destiny 2 was a slightly riskier project — a follow-up to a new, expensive, and divisive intellectual property — and Activision has reason to be happy with its results thus far. The game, however, has experienced a fair share of controversy — Bungie's handling of in-game progression and downloadable content has left many Destiny 2 players upset (and the developer apologizing). Activision has similarly come under scrutiny for the loot box mechanics of Overwatch , a game developed by Blizzard, one of its subsidiaries. But luckily for Activision, the brunt of player backlash has been directed toward EA, its primary publishing rival, due to Star Wars Battlefront 2 's loot boxes .

According to Taylor, the team always knew it was going to be Cayde, and that his death had been planned for a long while. Fans had previously datamined information regarding Cayde's death, but Barrett and Taylor said that info was actually unrelated to the Forsaken expansion.

It's a 4-versus-4 mode that blends traditional competitive multiplayer with " unpredictable elements of [player versus environment play] ." Bungie's Scott Taylor announced that the mode will be at E3 2018, and that the studio has " always strived to create innovative experiences that will challenge and reward different kinds of players and ensure their beloved pastime is rewarding ."

The duo explained that the character is known for his witty one-liners and campy behavior even in the face of death, and that Destiny 2 : Forsaken is Bungie's earnest attempt to steer the series away from that action-hero trope. The studio is hoping the expansion will set a darker tone for a series that grapples with a lot of big, brooding questions, and it appears Cayde-6 was a necessary fatality to ensure that the Guardians' nadir was successfully reached.
