Sony has issued a strong response to a lawsuit filed by Christopher Barrett, a former Bungie employee and the ex-game director of Destiny 2 and the upcoming Marathon reboot. Barrett's lawsuit claims that he was wrongfully dismissed from Bungie, which was recently acquired by Sony. In 2024, Barrett and Bungie parted ways, with the departure initially attributed to a leadership shake-up. However, it was later revealed that the Destiny 2 game director's termination stemmed from an internal investigation into inappropriate behavior.
