As Bungie launched Future 2: Into the Gentle and new gameplay for The Remaining Form, a curious rumor emerged about Future 3. Codenamed “Payback,” it comes from a Reddit person who leaked particulars about Prismatic subclasses earlier than their official announcement. In a brand new publish, they’ve clarified a number of issues about Payback, particularly that it’s its personal sport and never a Future 2 revamp.
“Future 3 is Future 3. Not a giant DLC. Not a revamp of Future 2. Future 3, so far as my most up-to-date information goes, is a brand new sport within the franchise. I believed that might be apparent.” Whereas nonetheless involved with their sources (beforehand famous to be “a few former Bungie workers”), they discovered that Payback has been within the works “at the least since” The Witch Queen, however “closely within the background.” Future 2 and Marathon nonetheless took up the lion’s share of the event assets.
As for the gamers’ potential to make use of any potential, they heard about it “late Summer time of final yr.” Additionally they clarified in a remark beneath their earlier rumor about Payback’s story that “I’ve by no means explicitly acknowledged that it’s confirmed to nonetheless be taking place. That is simply my most modern information.”
Take issues with a grain of salt, as normal. Plans may at all times change, and predicting the way forward for Future – and Bungie as an entire – is difficult, particularly if The Remaining Form under-performs.
Within the meantime, The Remaining Form launches on June 4th for Xbox One, Xbox Collection X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC. Head right here for extra particulars about how Transcendence and the brand new Unique class gadgets work.
