With the recent announcements of games like Elden Ring, Cyberpunk, and Borderlands 4 being available on the Switch 2, I can’t help but wonder if Destiny 2 could also come to this new console. Given that these titles likely require just as much, if not more, resources to run, it seems feasible that Destiny could operate smoothly on the Switch 2. This could potentially attract a huge new player base! On the flip side, there’s also speculation about whether a remake of Destiny 1 could be in the works or if there could be a straightforward port with 60fps support. What does everyone think? Are we likely to see Destiny on Switch 2?

I think Bungie is already stretched thin with Destiny 2; they might not have the time or manpower for a Switch port or a D1 remake. They could be better off focusing on improving D2 and other projects.
I can’t imagine them allocating resources to port Destiny when other projects like Frontiers are still in the air. It seems like a stretch to think they would jump into another platform right now.
Don’t forget, if Bungie manages to fix their current bugs and issues, a Switch port could potentially attract a lot of fresh players! But yeah, a Destiny 1 remake seems unnecessary since most content is already in Destiny 2.
I totally get it! A D1 remake might not make sense to everyone, but for some of us, it would be fun to revisit old maps and stories, especially with an updated campaign.
Honestly, I think there’s a very slim chance. Porting a game like Destiny is a massive task, and I doubt Bungie sees the return on investment. Most existing players probably won’t buy it again for another console, and there doesn’t seem to be a strong influx of new players.
I disagree! Many players, including myself, would be willing to buy it again. The real question is whether enough new players will join in to make it worth Bungie’s while.
But if they can just port existing content rather than developing new stuff specifically for the Switch, it might not require as much effort. Plus, the revenue from new sales could be huge!
