Bungie, once the key studio in Microsoft's stable, is now fully a subsidiary of Sony.
Having grown up in the 2000s, it's almost unthinkable for me to imagine Bungie, the Halo guys, becoming in-house Sony developers, but this is the third time this sort of platform/community seismic shift has happened to Bungie alone. Long before Mister Chief was gunning down Elites while talking to a lady who lived in his armor when the company was part of Microsoft, Bungie wasstandard bearer of gaming on Mac OS, making a name for itself with games like Marathon, Myth, and Oni.
Bungie's later move to secure independence from Microsoft remains a pretty singular example of such a thing in the games industry—moving from owned to independent is like swimming upstream, and there's not really anything out there like this developer's journey of going from independent to owned to independent to owned once more. I'm going long on Bungie buying itself out from under its publisher again in 2029 followed by a Nintendo acquisition somewhere in the 2040s.
